home network winXP

I have a couple computers hooked up to my router, both are winXP pro
one is my computer the other is an older one, but the OS is a fresh install
from the fresh install I can go through my network places and access my computer, or at least whatever I have shared. but when I try to access the new install pc from mine, it asks for a password, and in the username section (right above password) it says guest and you cant change it, and the password isnt the admin password for the account that I setup when I installed.
whats the deal
