Default Strange behavior in wireless network

Hey all,


it's me, again... :-D

Ok Thanks to everyone who tried to help me with my wireless network problem
between an xp and vista computer.

After 10 days of trying I still couldn't access a pc from the other, UNLESS
I tried to type the ip of the other comp in the "Run..." box of windows. The

error message (Not enough rights...and so on) What's the reason? The shared
folders now work, but why don't they work the easy way??
