My family shares a single ADSL connection on a Windows 98SE peer-to-peer
10BaseT network with 5 machines.

I'd recommend you uninstall Windows Connection Sharing and use a proxy
instead.

I use a freeware proxy from Analog-X
(http://www.analogx.com/contents/download/network/proxy.htm) and a freeware
personal firewall from Tiny Software
(http://www.tinysoftware.com/pwall.php). The setup's been working great for
more than a year now.
