I am trying to make the Internet available on my Win2k Laptop through my
XPPro machine.
First, I am able to browse each computer from the other - i.e I can see
each computer from the other

I am able to get the internet working from My Mac through the XP
machine, however, only through Safari on the Mac - Explorer on the Mac
will not connect to the internet

I suspect that it is my proxy settings that are set within explorer, but
I don't know how to set them. Also, If I select Automatic Detect
settings on the Win2k machine, it does nothing

Any Suggestions as to what I need to do?
