I have two computers running XP and one dial-up internet connection. I
bought a crossover cable...but now I'm stuck as to how I enable them to
share the same connection. Is it possible to be online at the same time?
Please HELP ME!!

Cindy. You might try Google search for 'internet connection sharing with
1394' which is yet another option. You need two machines with 1394 cards.
Having two XP machines makes this easier. Two NIC cards alone with one cable
between the two is also an option. Do you have a wireless or wired router?
You could try networks groups for further setup help.
