I've experienced that at my work as well, except when I would access a
shared folder, and it asks for username and password, it lets me in. 
(You need a proper account, or her computer needs to allow everyone to
share, in which case, just click OK when the password dialog comes
up).

Is this already present in Bugzilla?  If not, we should add it.
