Are you running a firewall?
Is DHCP enabled on both the router and the PC?
Can you ping the router from the PC?

Have you defined the gateway for this system? It's typically the ip address
of your router.

To mess up a Linux box, you need to work *at* it.
To mess up a Windows box, you need to work *on* it.

In addition to the good advice to check the gateway, check the DNS
settings on your friend's computer. Either set them to automatic or use
yours. You can also try:

Start>Run>cmd [enter]
ipconfig /flushdns [enter]
