As long as the other PC is connected to your hub, you can enable Internet Connection Sharing. Use the Internet Connection Wizard on the other PC to point to your shared connection.
Are you saying that your PC in NOT connected to the network, only to the DSL? Then you would have to use a direct cable connection between them if you don't want to add a NIC.

get a router. The router can take on the ID of your DSL account. Setup the router to hand out IP's (DHCP). Then any of your computers can connect to the internet through your DSL line.
If both computers are on the network at the same time, you may even share files between them. Although sometimes this is tricky with XP and other OS's

Get a router and install it between the dsl modem and the hub.
I have seen Linksys BEFSR11's for as low as $35.00 that includes shipping.
