Double connection

[Brian]

Hi everyone

I am not a computer expert like you guys and would like
to ask you for help. I have two computers running
Windows XP pro. The 1st one connects to the internet
throught my ISP. The 2nd one is not. I would like to
know if there is any possibility to connect the 2nd one
to the internet via the 1st one without me having to pay
extra. If there is a possibility, please help to do it.

Thanks a lot.

Brian

Hi, Brian. Yes, you can do it. I've written a web page with full
details:

If you have questions after looking at the page, please come back to
the news group and ask them!
