Cannot browse shared drives

I am running Win2K3 server and XPpro workstations in a small domain.

When I try to map a drive to a shared folder on a workstation, I go My
Computer > Map Network Drive > Folder: \\server\share, no problem.

However, if I click the browse button instead of typing the share name
directly in, I can browse down to Domain > Entire Network > MS Windows
Network > company .... but it won't let me browse any further, down to the
actual shared folder.

From reading posts, it would seem I have to have NBT installed to enable
network browsing, but am unsure how to determine if I have, or even if the
problem lies somewhere else.
