Slow transfer

Hi

I have Vista Ultimate networked to a XP Pro through
a Speedstream Ethernet Modem/Router which is said to
be a 100MB/Sec

When I transfer files or folder between the two PC's
the best speed I get is 700 KB/Sec.

Any ideas on what I can do to speed this up, could it be the AV or firewalls
slowing things up?

thanks, any help appreciated.

regards

Daniel

That is probably good advice, looking it up in Google just gets me confused.
