OP
Thanks for your reply. However in the WINS tab of my dialup properties, I see no option for Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP ;( I'm using W2K Pro sp3

Agrees with APK ... nicely put
And by default you got a couple of shares open, albeit admin shares ....
C$, D$, etc (the root of your C D or any other drive)
ADMIN$ (your system root folder)
IPC$ (interprocess communication ....)
You get to them from
Right click My Computer, Manage, Shared Folders, Shares

or
2.) NET SHARE * /D /YApparently the * can't be used - on [2] I get This shared resource does not exist. Have to do it manually :x

Quote:Now, (edit) by manually, you had to do each share type from up there & they said they were unbound? Curious... what did it for you if so, the NET USE or the NET SHARE commandlines with the /D or /DELETE parameters?
Sorry that wasn't clear. I used NET SHARE * /D and it produced the This shared resource does not exist message. So I have do one by one, like
NET SHARE C$ /D
NET SHARE D$ /D
NET SHARE ADMIN$ /D
....and so on.
Secondly, NET USE didn't work. Here's what happened.
C:\>net use C$ /d
The network connection could not be found.

After reading your comprehensive posts , I think I don't have much to worry about, after all IMHO
dialup + stand-alone machine = no worries(almost)
When I start to network machines or get a DSL/cable modem like yours 8) then I will have plenty to worry about. Thanks APK and DS3Circuit again for the advice!!!
