My main computer cant see the second computer when you go to computer and right click. It shows on remote computers. On my second computer (set with Enable incoming connections on port 10101) when you right click computers it shows my main computer as a remote computer. What can I check for this issue?

I just figured it out. On my 2nd computer I had installed VMware to look at loading a different OS while running W7. Well when I did that is was showing the VMWare as a active network but a public network. As soon as I disconnected the VMware network connection I could see my second computer from the main just like I should be able to.
