Default Allow friend through firewall


I want to allow just my friend to connect so that we can play Empire Earth.
I do not want to disable my WinXP firewall entirely (I use a cable
connection). I can't find a help topic on this. This was easy to do with 98
SE & Norton Internet Security, but now I have Windows XP Home.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Don
