When I setup folder sharing in Beta 6 on either my new iMac or new MacBook Pro, Windows explorer crashes every time I clck on a shared folder in the "Parallels Shared Folders" folder.

Is anyone getting this?

Do you know of a work around?

You can get around it by activating sharing on OS X, and going to \\<mac's_ip_address>\ in Windows Explorer - if it works it will ask you to log on as your Mac user. The IP address of the Mac will probably be a local one, mine is \\192.168.1.2 for example. When it works you can see your Home folder. I can't remember the network settings for the VM though as I'm at work, someone else can probably help with that.
