Hey guys,

I just started experiencing a new problem with my home set up. I have a mac and a windows 7 machine. Up until today, I had no problem networking between them all. However, today my mac see's the windows 7 machine in the "Shared" tab on the sidebar however it says "Not Connected" and it don't let me connect to it.. No matter what I do, it just sits there doesn't let me manipulate it any way. I tried restarting both machines obviously numerous times, but no luck.. What is weird, when I when to "Go>Connect to Server" then typed in "smb://"name of my PC" it connected to it... So what is the deal. I have the newest 10.6.6 snow leopard on my mac... I haven't installed any updated or done any installation for that matter. All apple software updates are to up date.. Neither PC nor my mac had any new stuff on it in last 10 days..

Thx alot.
