I have a client that is in question on the Windows 98 Second Edition Update that users can order on line at the Microsoft website. He is not ready to advanced to ME or XP at this time and is in need of the ICS ( Internet Connection Sharing)

However, he has currently Windows 98 with the SP1 installed. If he was to order the Windows 98 Customer Service Pack ( Windows 98 Second Edition Update) will this get him the tool ICS installed on his "Server" machine? Is there another way of getting ICS... He doesn't want to use any proxy.. so please don't recommend it... I have already esplain that to him..

No,the ICS is part of the windows 98 SE operating system,the update is basically bug fixes to update the SP,He will need to purchase the Windows 98 SE upgrade cd to 98

soulrider is correct that he needs the W98SE upgrade for W98.

I have seen this listed at www.bigclearance.com for about $45.
You may be able to find it for less.

Also, remember that ICS is only installed on the host PC with the Internet connection, not the clients.
