Even when you turn zone alarm off it can interfere. Set both sliders to minimum on both computers and give it another try.

It takes windows a while (sometimes several minutes) to 'see' other computers on the network and update its network neighbourhood links etc. You can usaly force this by searching for the machine by its name, or just wait a bit and see if it appears. I suspect thgis is what happened here.
