I am looking for a very cheep or free proxy software solution for the following situation.

Home office, ADSL broadband wireless router, with 2 desktops wired into it, and a wireless laptop.

In a different room, 2 machines, one a wireless laptop, connected to wireless router, and wired into a switch. Second machine is a desktop wired into the switch.

Need to access the internet on the desktop, for web browsing, Outlook e-mail, and AV/Windows updates.

can anyone recommend some software to run on the laptop for this situation. I remember using some a number of years ago for a similar situation, but cannot remember the name of it.

I am currently using AnalogX proxy, which is somewhat flakey, and I have to keep restarting it every 10 mins or so.

F.Y.I. Someone in another forum reminded me of the name of the software I have used previously.

It is NetProxy.
