Confused [SOLVED] File sharing between WinXP and Vista

I have set up file sharing between my laptop (running Vista) and my PC (running WinXP), I did this quite some time ago and it worked fine for a long time. A few days ago I received the attached message when trying to access the file on my XP machine from my Vista laptop - first attachment.

The real strange thing is I get the same message (also attached) when trying to access the same folder on my xp machine using the "entire network" on explorer. These files are locate on the XP machine so I dont see how it can be a comunication issue between the two machines if I am receiving an error on my XP machine as well...hope this makes sense.

This has me REALLy confused an any help will be very much appreciated.

Cheers.
