Vista file transfer

[Mel 0]

I have a new Presario SR2173WM running VISTA.

This computer is networked with my HP W2040 with XP

and my daughters Presario running VISTA.

Each computer has a shared folder named dwnlds for

downloads and file transfer.

The problem ; I can got to either of the other two

computers on the network and upload files to the SR2173WM

but when I am logged on to the SR2173WM (even as administrater) and try to download files I just get a

requester saying I don't have permission to perform this

action.

I have tried every combination of permissions on all 3

boxes I can think of but the problem persists.Also,the

read only attribute is checked on theSR2173WM and when

I clear it the OS rechecks it.

It doesn't seem right to me that anyone on another

computer has more control of this box than administrator.

Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Thank you
