Power steering problem

Because i'm very NOT mechanically inclined i thought i'd ask here instead of trying to give her advice. A coworker went to her car this morning and somethings up with the power steering. It groans loadly when the wheel is turned and while not completely hard to turn, you can tell you have to put a little more might into it. The power steering cap seems to be under pressure while the car is on and the fluid itself looks like a brown froth. Any suggestions.

She was out doing donuts in the snow?

 

A whole bunch of people kill there power steering pumps doing donuts this time of year.

 

The high tire speed and turning the wheel from left to right quickly put a ton of strain on the system normally the pump fails.
