Jonah, Unk,
Turns out it was SP2 being on only one machine causing the problem. After I
installed SP2 on the client machine they're connected again even with
Firewall enabled on both machines.
Since I'm using a NetGear wireless router which has the built-in Firewall as
Unk stated, do I still need to have the WinXP Firewall enabled?
It appears that both Firewalls are working well together as I have not
recieved any error messages and both machines are networked and working fine.
