Synchronizing folders

[Guest]

Is is possible to setup two XPsp2 PC's in a workgroup to have their folders
synchronize dynamically. At the moment I am sharing 2 folders on the 2 PCs &
if I am on either pc I copy new files to the second pc. There is an option
to synchronize files under [my computer>Tools] but this seems to only point
to web pages. How can I set the synchronize options for specific folders or
do I need a 3rd party application to do this?
