Default Problem with remote assistance

Hello,

Trying to connect to my mother's computer and I receive the following
message when trying to connect:

"A Remote Assistance connection could not be established because the DNS
name of the remote computer could not be resolved."

Both computers run Windows XP SP3 with McAfee anti-virus/firewall.
Everything appears to be set-up correctly on both computers including having
Remote Assistance enabled in the firewall.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Rick J.
