It was html, sorry wont happen again.
Thanks for the advice but it still doesn't work. I've tried everything
that's been suggested, but still asks for a username and password
The client is XP if that makes any difference.
Do I have a allow access from my ip address?
Smb.conf
[global]
netbios name = THOR
workgroup = LANGHOLME
server string = Samba 2.2.7a
local master = yes
os level = 99
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
encrypt passwords = yes
security = guest
wins support = yes
# guest account = ftp
[music]
comment = Music Share
path = /home/share/music
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = yes
#[public]
# comment = Public Share
# path = /home/share/public
# browseable = yes
# writeable = yes
# create mode = 0777
# directory mode = 0777
# guest ok = yes
# #public = yes
# only guest = yes
# force group = @guest
# force user = guest

That wasn't html email was it? It just had extra lines.
Try putting:
guest account = ftp
into global.
For a real thrill, try:
guest account = root
