I disabled the WindowsXP Firewall and have installed ZoneAlarm on both my
desktop and laptop machines. I can ping and share files between the two
machines, but Internet connection sharing isn't working. The desktop
connects to the Internet via dial-up, and when connected I even see the icon
on the laptop in the tray for the Internet Gateway dialup connection, but I
can't access any website from the laptop. When I try to it prompts for a
phone number to dial-out with the modem. I've tried rerunning the Network
Setup Wizard on both machines to no avail.

I'm guessing there is something else I need to set in ZoneAlarm, but I don't
know what.

This is just a simple wired network through a router.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
