Internet Connection Sharing on XP???

[DanSS2471]

Hi All,

I'm attempting to install Cisco VPN client on Windows XP Home Edition. Upon the initial install dialogs being started, I get a message saying that the Cisco VPN client is not compatible with Microsoft's ICS. Uninstall ICS.

I'm an above-novice pc user and a new XP user. I found in the network settings where ICS is being used, but I have no idea how to 'uninstall' it or if I even want to do that for that matter. I attempted to uncheck the ICS box in my lan connection and retry the install. No good.

Can anyone tell me if uninstalling ICS will cause me further problems with my cable modem? Is ICS even 'Uninstall'able? If so, how do you go about doing it?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

Check services and make sure the ICF/ICS service is Disabled
The two rules for success are:
1. Never tell them everything you know.

Pardon my ignorace..but where do I check Services? I looked everywhere in Control Panel that I thought it would be with no luck. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks again..
