If your trying to setup a PPTP VPN link between the PCs you need to forward TCP Port 1723 and enable
GRE Protocol 47 traffic through the firewall. Personally I have no idea if you can do either using
SyGate Personal Firewall. I suggest you look at the SyGate support pages for help with that.
Here are some help pages that detail how to setup the XP PPTP VPN server and client...

So with that said, it might be easier to either use Remote Assistance, where your friend can watch
you access/control her desktop to fix problems, or Remote Desktop, where you access/control her
desktop and fix problems while she is locked out of the process.
>From the FAQ...
Q. What are the differences between Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance?
A. Remote Desktop and Remote Assistance use the same underlying technology, but there are
differences between these features.
a.. Remote Desktop allows access to a remote Windows computer. For example, when you are at another
computer you can use Remote Desktop to connect to your work computer from home and have access to
files and applications.
b.. Remote Assistance allows a helper to use an Internet connection to access your computer to
provide assistance. The helper views your computer's screen and communicates through a chat box. The
helper can remotely control your computer to resolve a problem.

Again, I am not sure how SyGate Personal Firewall would work in this case. It would need to be
configured for UPnP and/or forward TCP Port 3389 (used by both Remote Assistance and Remote
Desktop).
