I have been doing this for a good while. All you need is to assign the ip addresses to both computers for example let the server be 192.168.0.1 and the client to be 192.168.0.2. You do this then get a proxy server I advise you to use CCproxy it's free for up to three computers at a time. You use it on the server and copy the proxy setting to the internet options in the internet explorer. Then it is supposed to work. If you have a question email me because I don't check the website.
