you can do that by getting a router or a hub. With the hub you can connect not just one system, all you need to is get a network cable for the systems to be connected, connect the system that has the internet connection to be shared in the first port, you can decide to put all systems in the same workgroup.
But make sure that the ip addresses of the systems correspond so they can see each other.
I hope this helps.

you can also use internet connection sharing. if you connection comes in from say usb (starcomms), you can now share it across your lan. go to connections, right click on the connection that has your network connection, go to properties, advanced, internet connection sharing. enable it. if you have multiple interface, you could put it say on the lan. plug in and go on browsing.

If you don't want to go down the path of router and Hub, simply get a cross over ethernet cable and connect both computers and install a free proxy (just google there are many ages ago I used one called AnalogX) Install the proxy on the PC with the internet link and configure th esecond to use it as a proxy, look out for the ports! I have assumed both computers have ethernet ports and internet connection is already set up on one of them. don't forget to give each a diffrent IP address but within thesame subnet  |
