The idea that a tool can ONLY do "bad things" is absurd. A tool is a means to an end. AN END. Not a specific intentioned "good" or "bad" end, just AN END. This means the tool has no say in what it actually does, nor the moral consequences of such an act. The tool can only influence how well it performs at that act.
It's NOT ok to "go after" tools, because it doesn't solve anything. If someone wants to do something, they're going to do it. You can make it difficult by trying to remove a tool that makes that end easy, but two things happen:
1) A new tool takes it's place.
2) The general populace stays ignorant of why the end is "bad". All they learn is that the tool that does it is bad, which we've already pointed out to be wrong.
ICS starts a DHCP server and a DNS server on the interface you designate as the HOME side of your connection and assigns the ip address for that interface to be 192.168.0.1 by default. So as long as your internal ip addresses all either fall into the same net as the HOME interface or they use dhcp, it doesn't matter what operating system you're running.
Check the \tools\mtsutil\ics directory on the win982nd CD. It includes some inf files for disabling and re-enabling the servers based on your needs.
