Possibly. Do you have samba installed? Does your firewall have the ports 
for samba open? Are you attempting to connect to a printer on a Windows 
computer? Does it have a firewall? What kind of firewall does it have? 
Is it Norton or McAfee ? Both Norton and McAfee suck donkey balls. You 
are pretty vague about what exactly you are doing. Perhaps if you are 
more specific , then you will get more help. I understand the 
frustration but you claim the Dr title so perhaps a little maturity and 
composure are in order.
