Thanks for the help Steve.

Sadly I've done everything mentioned in your articles and
still no luck. I intend deleting ICS from the host and
try to reinstall it. How can I check what is actually
working? The PC's seem to talk OK as I'm able to file
share and printer share but nothing on the internet
connection.
