File Sharing strange issue

I have two computers with Windows XP Professional in home network. They are connected over router and I have strange file sharing problem with them. To be more precise, I have enabled simple file sharing on both computers made same user accounts on both of them, even disabled Zone Alarm and integrated Windows firewall but I am still unable to access shared files and folders on these computers. Can you give me some help with this issue?

First suspect will be Zone Alarm firewall. If there is a list of firewalls than can cause troubles even when disabled then Zone Alarm would be alone on the first place. I can only advise you to uninstall Zone Alarm and then try to access shared files and folders. Also, try to ping computers in network to see if only sharing is misbehaving.
