Windows Firewall in SP2

[joe black]

Using Windows XP Pro with SP2. Under the Security Options in control panel I
have turned off the Firewall but the bold writing on that screen still says
ON. If check the advanced settings under the LAN settings it says OFF. Could
this be what's preventing other PC's on my network from accessing it?

Thanks for help
