It isn't a big issue for me, which is why i haven't bothered to do anything about it!! although did try (and failed) to get it to work again last week!
Vista needs a username and password to access shared folders so if you dont use your laptop with a password, creating a username with a password should give you access. It can be a pain though as vista is pants.
I don't actually use it, only had access on it for a few months before i went back to XP
