I'm confused too! lol Sorry, on one of my computers, it shows "Local network" and (underneath it) Shareddocs on (my PC name). On the one that doesn't work, it shows nothing, not even the title "Local network" and on the Start menu, "My Network Places" is not on it. Thanks for the replies but I don't think the problem has been addressed yet. Help!
