Make sure the "File and Printer Sharing" exception is checked in the 
firewall config of the XP machine you can't access.

What happens when you enter the ip address of the machine in Konqueror?  
Ex. smb://1.2.3.4/

REPLY - Still no luck!! Even with the firewall turned off completely I get "Time Out" error in Konqueror when I click on the machine icon.

However if I enter the ip address I can see the machine!!??

Any explanation?  Thanks for the help..... Lots to learn
