There was some not so helpful post here, but I was bored so decided to search (as you should have.. took me like 3 seconds to find an answer) and it's below..

I don't know how old this car is, I'm guessing a first gen since she let it sit for over a year... but if it's newer than like 2000 then there should be a red pull out jumper by the fuse box, if that isn't there (and it's newer than like 2000) then that means the battery went dead with the security system activated...and if that's the case then:

Buy a male-to-male cigarette lighter adapter at the auto store. Connect between your car's (boxster) cigarette lighter socket and the other car's (any other car with a non dead battery) cigarette lighter socket. Do not try to start the ignition or the any other electronics. You should not even need the key in the ignition. You should be able to pop the door locks with the remote and open the trunk.

Porsches suck for that reason. I had to jump one at work one time, it was an long process. If i remember right you hook the jumpers to the fuse box and ground to the door hinge, from there you can pop the trunk. then you connect to the battery like any other car, let it sit for a while and try to crank. If it is on a battery charger, just let it sit for a couple hours and try again.

I see no mention of my method in your post, did you try it? No? Well go try it, I'm pretty sure it will work.

I could of done one of those lmgtfy post, but no.. I did that myself, then posted the results..and then you don't even try it from what I can tell. Not cool bro, not cool.
