1st, what Winoze OS are you running? 95/98/2000/XP/Me ?

I assume betwen the two you're using a cross over ethernet cable?

Furthermore I need to know what kind of internet connection it is LAN/Broadband(Cable/DSL) or is it dial up.

I'm not 100% sure what an "analog X proxy" is, I know what a proxy is. Is this a piece of shareware/freeware you downloaded? If it is, and you're using a a post Win95 box, it's unnesacry.

Instead of a proxy, you want NAT (Network Address Translation) although a proxy will do the NAT, it is also used to control access to certain things, which is one reason you might be having trouble accessing your .mac account. win 98 and up has built in NAT. I can give you more details when you reply
