Or, if you're a GNOME user. Nautilus has built in SMB browsing.

Just type smb:// to see all the computers in the current workgroup (at least
in Gnome 1.4, it doesn't seem to be working in Gnome 2). It works much the
same as network neighbourhood does. In fact, Nautilus is meant to be able to
handle most things like that seemlessly (I suspect I have broken my Nautilus
installation).

Otherwise, I was always quite fond of xsmbrowser
