The simple file sharing is a requirement of the winexe service. You can read
more about it here: http://eol.ovh.org/winexe/
I am looking into the XP Home issue, and some suggest that you can change
permissions and such if you boot into safe mode under the admin account,
more specifically simple file sharing is "disabled". I won't try it any time
soon, but was thinking of making a C$ share in safemode and adding the admin
as a user.
