When the need arises to transfer file(s) from one networked machine to another, I get different login prompts for different machines.

Most machines give me a normal windows login prompt for a username and password. Network users have limited user accounts, so I log in with the administrator account info and have free access to all parts of the drive, but on a handful of machines (set up exactly the same as the rest to my knowledge) I get this login....

I can't get into these machines at all. What do I need to change on these few to get the "normal" login prompt?
 
How to turn off simple file sharing
To disable simple file sharing, follow these steps:1. Click Start, and then click My Computer.
2. On the Tools menu, click Folder Options, and then click the View tab.
3. In the Advanced Settings section, clear the Use simple file sharing (Recommended) check box.
4. Click OK.
 
So that's what it is. I thought I had turned off simple sharing on all those machines when I set them up, but apparently I missed a few.
