Default Cant browse system on netowrk

Here is our network:

computer 1: windows 2000
computer 2: windows XP Pro
computer 3: windows XP Pro

All connected to Linksys router which goes to a cable
modem

Here is my problem. Computers 1 and 2 can browse through
the files on eachother. Neither can browse computer 3.
All 3 can connect to the internet just fine. If I click
my network place on 1 or 2, I can see computer 3, but
cannot do anything beyond that. If I click my network
places on computer 3, it shows nothing. Please help. as
far as I can tell everything is set up correctly. Same
work group, same users... drives are shared etc.
