PD4 VM-Mac network password?

Hello,

I seem to have annoying problem. When I suspend the VM (WinXP Pro, SP3) and activate again, it looses connections to the Documents, desktop and other mapped folders. I can get access to Mac folders through Parallels network, but if I try to write in any of the shared folders (desktop) I get Windows screen asking to give it password to remount those folders.

I got no idea what password it should be - this user is created automatically by PD4 (?) and no one told me the password. It does not show in mac as user, so I cannot change the password to something I know... Empty does not work. Admin or my own password does not work either. Does anyone know the password so I can remount the shared folders?

If I reboot Windows, I have access to shared folders without any problems. And I loose the access after suspending the VM again.

This was not problem on PD3.

Thanks

Of course. First try. But the password is not for my own account, but some interesting account called:
SomeWeirdNameOfComputer\Guest
I am not sure what account that is, since my computer never had Guest account switched on. It must be some kind of special network only account I surely have not created myself.
 
Did just now... Reboted VM, all working, suspended, unsuspended, no access to Desktop and other shared folders.

Still asking for "GUEST" account password.

Firewall is only the build in OSX 10.5 firewall.
There us CalmXAv antivirus, no other software. No change from PD3 when all worked.

Please try to create the same situation, and when asked password, please in Parallels Desktop - Help menu - click Report a Problem, and post report ID here
