Maybe try to running your friend’s Wireless Network Setup Wizard again..

Hmm.. it’s kinda hard to know what’s going on your friend’s laptop.. but have you tried configuring the Windows Firewall? or any firewall software she uses?
Maybe that gives a problem, because for me it does.. that is if she uses some sort of software firewall.  :idea:
