If you insist on running Win95 as the point of share, pick up a copy of WinGate and use that to share your Internet connection. Win98SE and Win2K have ICS built into them, and Win2K in particular is attractive as it can provide either standard proxy services or NAT capabilities depending on what you need for sharing the connection. WinGate has this abaility as well in the standard (non-free) version - I think the shareware is limited as to # shared connections and share types supported. FWIW, I use WinGate Pro on my LAN here to share an ADSL connection, and am very happy with it.
