I’m trying to set up file and printer sharing with my wife’s computer.

I’m running Win98SE and she’s using WinXP2 Home.

We’re current sharing a cable Internet connection and she is able to use my
printer.  However, my “Network Neighborhood” does not “see” her computer and
I can not use her printer.

On her computer (WinXP2) I’ve tried to set up a home network and am told to
copy and then run the file “netsetup.exe” on my computer. Yet each time I
attempt to run the file, it performs an “illegal operation” and tells me to
restart my computer.  Furthermore, I’m told that the program was cancelled
“due to restrictions in effect on this computer.”  I closed ZoneAlarm and
Norton Anti-Virus but got the same message when I attempted to return
netsetup.exe.

The details of the message are below.  Any help you can give me in allowing
me to print from my wife’s printer will be appreciated.

Thanks.
