Well, if you're both running 2000 and he's running server edition he could set
up a VPN connection via RRAS. Otherwise he'd have to allow file sharing on his PC
and create a share and password protect it, and you could access it by mapping a
drive to \\[friends IP address]\sharename, but this method is very unsafe.
Or, you could both buy a 3d party program like PCAnywhere that allows this type
of access.

Or have him setup an FTP server. I believe there is a few freeware FTP servers around.
IIS has one as well if hes running a server windows os.
