PPPoE with ADSL is an alternative to ICS. ICS causes the host PC to act as a DHCP
server for the client. PPPoE over ADSL allows each node to connect independantly
without DHCP. The ADSL router is the place to setup additional nodes -- although
with PPPoE you may have to pay an extra fee for the second node.

I am having the same problem - I did have ICS working at one time but it is not working
now. In fact, I can't get my pc to connect using IE even without ICS turned on.
I think I'll have to try re-installing win98se, have you tried another solution?

The previous answer is absolutely correct. A little bit of info on a workaround may
be helpful though. If you have a little knowledge on networking you should have no
problem setting up an easy-to-use software proxy on the host machine, and forget
the ICS. I recommend proxy+ (it works fine for me). All you have to do is to install
it, and set up a basic forwarding from the local intranet addresses to the internet.
Of course if you have a larger local network you should consider using a router/modem
or a standalone router pc. But for a home network with 2 pc's it's a good solution.
Ahh, and if you want to forward more than ports 80,110,25, it may be a bit harder
to set up...but for the 'basic' internet usage it's easy to set up.
