Question about 'How to Share Files through Windows XP's Internet Connection Firewall'

I have a question about How to Share Files through Windows XP's Internet Connection Firewall:

I followed the directions to share files across a fiewall (I'm trying to network 2 xps with one W98 and one W95), but my Advanced Settings does not include a "Services" tab, nor does it show an option to "Protect my computer & network.." Any idea why that would be, and do you have any suggestions to overcome it?

If you don't have an option for the Internet Connection Firewall in the location specified in the article, it could be caused by either of the following:

  • The connection you're looking at is for your LAN, not for your Internet connection.
  • Your Internet connection isn't set up properly. Try running the Network Setup Wizard.
