The readme file that is setup when Sygate is installed says that the free
version does not support ICS but the Pro version does.
>From the Readme:

"Sygate Personal Firewall will block your ICS clients if you are using
a dialup connection on Windows 98se. And Sygate Personal Firewall
will block your ICS clients if you are using Windows ME, 2000 or XP."

I downloaded the trial Pro version and ICS did work on my W98SE system.
Unfortunately the PC seemed to lock up - don't know why. I had it on a P200
whereas they recommend the minimum machine as a PII 350.
