Network/File Sharing Problem

I have two computers in my house connected by a Ethernet hub. I have Verizon DSL as my ISP. Both pc's are able to connect to the internet using the hub.

1st PC O/S: Win XP Professional
2nd PC O/S: Win ME

I used the Windows Home Networking wizard to set up a home network on both pc's. They each have a unique computer name and the same group name.

On the XP machine I can see the computer name in the explorer under entire network but do not have permission to access the Win Me machine.

On the Win ME machine I cannot even see the XP machine name at all.

Is Microsoft trying to be difficult on purpose or am I just missing something?

Any help is appreciated

Thanks
