Is it possible to make a password to connect to the network? Is there mabey a program to do it? 'cause I need to make one, so that my kids shouldn't use the internet (through the network to my computer that has DSL)whenever they want!

you can set up a proxy server so you can filter what they can and cant go to. im not sure if a password will prevent them access to the net unless they go through your computer and then to the net. just a though.

Turn off Internet connection sharing whenever you don't want them using the Internet. Even if the network is password protected (the drives and what not) Internet connection sharing should still work.
