Hi - I currently have three PCs at home. In each I have a wireless adapter, which I use to connect to my neighbor's Airport router for Internet access. All is well here, but now I also want to get my PCs to see one-another in a peer-to-peer network. What are my options here, and/or what's the easiest and/or best way for me to do this. All advice will be much appreciated!

Thx in advance,
Zain

What do you mean by to see one-another ?
Is that mean you wish to see the folders in other computers?

Yes, at a minimum. I may later want to share some other hardware, but for now I'd be happy enough if two of the machines had access to the folders on the third machine.

What OSs are the various computers running?

All three of my PC's are running XP (Home, I think). Thx.

Go to the folders you want to enable its sharing, right click it, click on sharing and security, check on 'share this folder on network'.
