Default Network Question - Laptop sees PC / PC does NOT see Laptop

OK then

Got a PC hard wired to a wireless router.

Got a laptop wireless connected to router.

Both sharing the BB connection

ALL SWEET !!

they were both able to share files/folders on each others drives...

HOWEVER, I have just noticed that the PC can see the name of the laptop, but when i click on it, it gives me all the ****e about contacting administrator and access denied...

BUT.... the laptop can happily view/browse/play/use the file on the PC

WTF ???

any suggestions ??

I've rerun network setup... to NO avail...

cheers for any help...
