how to remove $ sign in network sharing

[vikasg03]

hello
in my company 200+ PCs are there. 95% system are easily shared. all having either windows98 SE or windows 2000 server edition. But 5% system are not shared to each other when we try to open that PC through share i receive one password window which display message like this \\VISHAL\IPC$ *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=114&stc=1&d=1151683394
(jpg file also attach)and below is password window. in which i give password. But PC never access. because here i got $ sign. all PC where this sign appears cannot access. other PC easily access.
Is there any way to remove this $ sign. this error comes in both type of machine i.e 98/2000. means win 98 to win 98 or win 98 to win 2000 access.

thanks
vikas

do the operating systems have service packs installed ?
if so which version

The shares marked with $ are default shares that are created by Windows for non-user purposes... Create separate shared folders in the same computer and see if you can access them...
