I have at home two pc's a win98 and a w2k. They see eachother but only w2k has rw access to win98. When I click the W2k icon from Network Places (Neighborehood) I get a small window askim me a password to connect to //W2k/ICP$.

What should I do?

If you create a user on both machiens with the same username and password and log into that account you will see this issue disappear. Win2k requires authorization before it allows access to its shared data. This is the best way to do it, the most secure way. You could also simply type in the username and password of a user that has permissions to view the network shares(shared stuff) everytime you wanted to access the 2k box.
