I'm not having this problem right now, but I have had this problem before pop up out of nowhere when my computer got a virus that made it so all users had to enter some nonexistent password to access smb stuff.

If you're desperate you could just reinstall windows.

the only time I got this problem was when I did'nt set the security right (for the folder). I added "all" and everything worked after that (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Edit: However, I'm using XP not Vista

i had the same prob with vista RC1 so i uninstalled it.... i think it was the firewall or smth like that, since then i'm sticking to xp till xbmc supports vista...
