You need to enable 'internet connection sharing' on the PC that you want to connect to the internet through. If you have Win98 or later that is. I don't think it's supported under Win95. On the machine that you don't use to connect directly to the internet you need to set up a network connection through the other computer. You also need a browser on each machine. To find out all the details, search for 'internet connection sharing' under Start/Help. Be warned though, it's not for the faint-hearted.	Guest (0)
