Hello; I would like to share an internet connection with my network. There are 4 computers 2*winXP, win98 and win ME. The WinME PC will be the router. I search a soft to share my internet connection like WinGate. But WinGate is not free! Is it possible to find a FREE soft with similar functions? Thanks in advance.

I had the same requirement and tried AnalogX, but for some reason it exhibited some erratic behavior. It just used to vanish from the System tray whenever I roll mouse over it. I had to restart it all the time. I think the problem was only with me as it had very rave reviews on the Internet. So I tried "Jana Server". It's free too and never had a single problem since then. Try it if you are not happy with AnalogX.
