Scanning XP computer over the local network

Sorry if this is an elementary question but:
I have one machine with NAV installed, and a second running
Windows XP Home on the local network. I can scan filesystems
on the XP machine from the first one, however the directories
C:\Windows and C:\Program Files are not shareable, therefore
are not scanned (Symantec silently skips over them). Of course
these are also the directories most likely to have viruses
in them. The normal Windows dialogue box for sharing does not
operate due to their being system directories.
Is there a way of making them shareable/readable? (A brute-force
approach would be make readable copies of them, and scan those.)
Thanks,
Steve
