Network help

[weringo]

I would like to share my whole computer with my other computer over a wireless network. I have a belkin router and I have set up WPA-PSK with a password so other people cannot connect to it.

At the moment I have set up a network with the wizard in My Network Places but now when I click on "Mshome" in other places it comes up with my PC with only Printers and Faxes in it and "Scheduled Tasks"

I have two questions:

How do I set up the network so I can access other PCs on the network wirelessly and be able to browse the whole PC?

Is it safe from outsiders from trying to break into the wireless network because before I was using the router just for internet purposes without setting up WPA-PSK and when I checked there were some unknown PCs connected to the network?

I STRONGLY advise against doing this with wireless. Even though you have implemented wireless security, if you're going to share a whole PC then its a bit risky, you never know when someone's gonna find your wireless network and start trying to hack it.
Use ethernet cable if you can!!!

As for sharing a whole PC...if you have XP Pro on the computer that you are trying to share, it would be much easier to setup Remote Desktop as opposed to shared folders. This would also greatly reduce some of the aforementioned risks with wireless
If this is not possible, then the only option, I'm afraid is to do the old sharing and security on the C:\ drive and anything else you want to share.
