Yes, through M$'s Direct Cable Connection facility/utility (included in all versions of Windows). Help should walk you through it and I don't think it's too complicated.

Never used it, just anecdotal stuff from friends. Certainly slow, but apparently works fine, esp. if you have not too much to transfer. Some assembly required unfortunately (not too much), batteries not included....

http://www.wown.info/j_helmig/wxpdcc9i.htm points out some XP traps. Also http://www.techtv.com/callforhelp/an...000467,00.html and http://www.wown.com/j_helmig/dccmain.htm or Google for Direct Cable Connection
