Honestly James if you can "see" these partitions in other Window
Managers, then it is suffice to say that it is mounting properly. What
you may be missing is the mount "point" when browsing in Thunar. The
typical place for other partions/drives in *buntu is /media/. So
before we go any further try looking there, in XFCE.

--This is assuming that when you said:
 >>>"when I use Gnome or KDE I have no problem accessing my Windows
NTFS partitions">>
 you meant you have those Window Managers intstalled _on_ the computer
you have XFCE installed on as well....Otherwise follow the previous
posters advice
