Well,
# mount -t smbfs //PC/share /mnt/share
Password:<just type enter>
Anonymous login successful

This should happen if your XP box allows all the users to access the shared 
folders. Else, give user name with -o username= option and type enter when it 
asks for a password, if it doesn't work, type space for password. If it still 
doesn't work, go to your XP box, do a "format c:" and install Linux. Adios
