Hope somebody can help, im tired of looking in google.

Im trying to share files between a laptop (vista) and a desktop (XP) both connected to a linksys WRT54g wireless. From the desktop there is no problem getting the files from the laptop, but from the laptop i can see the desktop but when i double click for exploring the desktop files, it tells that a firewall is blocking port 445. Printer and file sharing firewall exception is enable on the desktop, if i disable windows firewall then i have access, also if i connect to the router with wire. Any thoughts?
