My problem seems simple but it has me stumped.

I have a 3 computer network with internet connection sharing and it has been
working fine for a year.

Both client computers can establish the internet connection (ADSL) through
the host.

Today, neither of the clients has been able to access either the web or the
email. The host has no problems.

All three are working fine in the network and files can be viewed swapped
etc across the network.

I am sure there is a simple answer.

Any help would be appreciated

HAve you done any recent windows updates or anything
lately? What exactly happens when they try to go on the
internet?

IE returns DNS error.
and OE returns not found

Windows update done on the Host computer, the day before the problem
happened, no further updates seem to be required on and of the machines. Ie
all up to date
 
You might of installed a firewall which is blocking the ports required for the two clients on the ICS.

If you have installed a firewall set-up new rules allowing full acess to and from your client computers using thier hostnames and/or thier IPS.

You could re-run the Home and office networking wizard on each system or fire up the properties of your LAN on each lient to make sure thier Gateway is poinitng to your ICS host's IP.
