Should I install Internet Connection Sharing if I have multihomed system and my ISP provides Internet connection thru Ethernet? Or it can be done simply with IP-routing? Does Windows XP Pro have build-in router?

You need to use ICS to share the connection. XP can handle ip routing
okay between the two interfaces but without ICS you would need a
separate NAT device (like a router) to handle the sharing.
