Windows XP share problem.

Hi, the problem is this:

I have 3 computers all of them with Windows Xp PRO ServPack 2
when i first wanted to network them i did that on two comps
COMP1 and COMP2 I used some shared folders and they work just as i set them with read-only and all that but then i also networked the COMP3 and when I use COMP1 or COMP2 to see what's on COMP3 it says Access Denied. i used the map network drive and it says access denied on all shares on COMP3. I have the 3 computers on a wireless router and like i said COMP1 and COMP2 communicate perfect but none can't with COMP3 I mean I can see the shares but cannot see what's in them because it says Access Denied, but I can access Internet on all 3 computers but cannot solve this problem COMP3 doesn't work on the shares i made So can anyone help me why that happens?

I have all computers under one workgroup name.
They all have different names.

Thanks in advance....

Accounts? Unless you have the guest account activated, the serving computer must have a matching account to that which is trying to access the resource.

Permissions? The accessing account must have NTFS permissions to use the resource.

I have the guest account activated on all computers but I disabled the Administrator account because I once read that it is not secoure for a computer.

Could the Administrator account be the problem?
