ubuntu samba, windows network - username password issues

Hi all,

I have recently, with a lot of fiddling/searching forums etc., managed to get my windows xp and ubuntu 7.04 computers to communicate with each other over a network.
Both computers can open each other's shared folders/directories, with the expected read/write access permissions.

My only question is this:
Connecting to my ubuntu computer from windows requires the samba user name and password that I set up with smbpasswd. Is there any way to access Ubuntu shares without this password? -since I use these computers at home, I really don't need the protection of having a password, and it's just an extra annoyance to type it in.

Thanks

Jimmy Wu
