XBMC hangs when searching smb://WORKGROUP
#1
Went to System..File Manager. Under A, selected "Add Source"

1. There is an "A" side and a "B" side. One side has a picture of a peripheral with a Red Cross insignia that is flourescent green. The "B" side has a peripheral that says something unintelligible on it. They are both labelled "Root" What does all of this mean?

2. After (double) clicking "Add Source", on the "A" side I click "Browse" in "Add files source" then try to browse Workgroup in "Windows Network (SMB)".

XBMC hangs on step 2 - "connection timed out". I can see my Workgroup on all other PCs on my LAN. How to fix?
