After SP2 Shares ask for password to connect

After finally managing to get SP2 installed on my desktop, the shares I had
setup (includeing print sharing) now pop a login dialogue box with the guest
account (greyed out) that requests a password for my other PC's to access it.
I have never had any accounts setup (or passwords) so I don't know what to
put in. Better yet, how do I get rid of it???

All of the shares show up on net view and ipconfig/ping shows proper network
config - all the computers see each other. My desktop can access the other
two PCs but they cannot access my desktop without logging in. Help.
