Making My Account Un-private?

Ok, heres the lowdown. EDIT: I run Windows XP SP2!
I share my music on my home network, it was working fine all the computers/laptops (we have about 3) could access my music collection and play it (only my 'My Music' folder was shared, not the whole drive).
About a week ago i had to put my pc user account passworded since i had alot of information about xmas prezzys on there, and i really didnt want my family finding it since they use my pc once in a while (was just being safe). I remeber when i set the password, it said 'do you want to make this account private, other people wont be able to see your files on it) that sounded like a good idea, so i clicked yes.
Now after a few days after christmas my sister wanted to access my music again, so i took the password off. But a problem occured, the laptop or any other pc's couldnt access my music. It apears on Network places but they cant open it or play the files. I go to the shared options and the problem is, is that the 'Private' box is checked. Of course being computers wanting to make it soo hard for you, it was greyed out so i couldnt uncheck it. I click the 'cannot make this public because another folder is private' or somthing. I click on that and it brings me to my user file, for me it is called 'Owner'. Im not sharing my entire drive so i dont want to make this shared, but making it public doesnt matter since im not sharing it. But alas 'Make this folder private' is also greyed out.
