XP Home and Pro Networking Problems

Hey.
I've tried to share files between two PCs; one has XP Home installed, and the other has XP Pro installed. The PC with Home installed can see the PC with Pro installed, but it can't access the Shared Files Folder. However, the PC with Pro installed cannot even see the other PC. All appropriate protocols have been installed, and the Internet Connection Firewall has been disabled. Please Help.
