    How do I "Unshare" a Drive, Daaa?

    My CD-Rom is set to share, I do not want to share it but can not figure out how to change it. When I right click on it I do not see anything about sharing. Running WIN XP. I know it should be obvious, thanks.

    I'm not in front of my XP machine right now, but I think if you right click on the CDROM - click properties - click on the Sharing tab.

    Thanks for the help, I just needed to walk away for a bit and it came to me. I needed to put a disk in the CD-Rom then was able to bring up the option to share the drive or not. It must need something to share on the drive and not just the drive itself.To change sharing functions. Although the drive shows up as a share even when there is no disk in it. Go figure.
