Gave up trying to find a workaround and have now de-activated the PC Guard firewall on both machines (leaving antivirus etc still running) and activated Windows Firewall on both. With this set up both file and printer sharing work normally.

It does seem crazy, however, that VM actively encourage home networks by supplying a router and allowing PC Guard to run on up to 3 machines yet the PC Guard firewall software it supplies will not support home networking!
