XP Home on the Network

[shmoes]

Hey there,

I'm sure this is a easy dumb question, but what's the easiest way to keep other computers from seeing an XP HOME computer on the network ... it seems the options from XP PRO aren't available.

Thanks!

What exactly do you mean?? What type of network - home or business with domain??

Don't share any of the drives.

It a home style network with 1 computer that has private business stuff ( no domain) and xp home installed.. The wireless network has many different computers connect to it at random and I don't want them to see the computer not just the drives.

Thanks

In the Network Adapter Properties turning off File and Printer Sharing might do it.

change its work group so it no longer belongs to the other computer's work group.
