I have just installed a fresh xampp stack on my machine, and can access it from localhost, my pc name, and ip address. There is nothing on it yet, but getting the welcome page fine.
I seem to remember in the past that other users could access my localhost by going to my ip (192.168.2.6) but I can't seem to get it working.
We can both ping each other fine so I don't get what the problem could be.
We have tried a few things in httpd.conf and restarted apache each time but I'm rather confused.
Anyone know if I need to add a VirtualHost entry or is it more likely to be a firewall problem or something similar?

As far as I'm familiar with it it is indeed a firewall issue. If you're behind a NAT then you should set up your modem/NAT configuration to forward port 80 to your machine.
