There's no help like free help.

Cindy, there are about 2.5M sites which address this situation - or call 
your ISP and see if they will talk you through it.  It's not hard, but 
you will probably need 2 network cards in the computer connected to the 
phone line, an Ethernet hub or switch, and another network card(s) in 
the computer(s) you want to allow to use the connection.

You may want to do a little research on cross-posting, too.
