Firewall on a USB-MyWireless?

[Viper]

Just a thought?

How does a firewall (Zone-Alarm) PRotect a connection coming from a USB-Mywireless? Zone-Alarm Works well with normal NIC's and Wi-fi.. But how should I protect the connection from my Mywireless USB Modem to my PC with a firewall?

I've installed that but 'n can't get it to share my connection with the other guys on the network. Any advice on that? My machine has the connection. Running XP! help help...

Its the same as any dialup connection. In your firewall settings choose the sentech connection as you internet connection or external interface on which to apply your rules. This is highly dependent on your firewall software for example if you must set up manual rules per interface.
