How come (on my mac) in my sharing dialogue it says that 'windows file sharing' is on yet the button won't remain checked and no servers appear in my 'connect to server' dialogue.
harrumph!!
yes, I have connected the ethernet and set up the sharing business on the windows side. and all that jazz

What OS are you running on your windows system?
XP Home and Pro do not support the appletalk protocol.

Im currently using my USB camera card reader to bring files back and forth - how shit is that.

Yeah it's shit. Your only option is looking for something like PCMacLANor one of those other programs. There is a lot of information on the web in regards to this.
We use instant messenger in our office to send files back and forth because it defaults to the LAN in order to send files if you're sharing the connection between the computers. You could try that instead of sneaker net.
