Windows Vista can't see Windows XP after installing Windows Updates RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hello!

    I have a desktop computer with Windows XP Professional SP3 and a laptop computer with Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. Both of them are in the same workgroup with no account sharing.

    I update yesterday the lastest windows update on Windows XP and Vista and after that Windows Vista can't connect to XP.

    On XP:
       Ping to localhost and network IP works fine.
       Ping to Vista works fine.
       It see Vista laptop and shared folders.

    On Vista:
       Ping to XP doesn't work.
       It can't see XP machine on WorkGroup and (of course) can't access file shared.

    Any advice? It was working perfectly before installing windows update. I don't share any login account between Vista and XP and it was working.

    Thank you
