So, your saying that your dad's computer is an ICS server, and when his computer connects to the internet via modem, yours has no internet access, but yours is connected to the internet?
make sure your computer is set to get a DHCP IP address.
also check in your Internet Explorer settings, more specifically in the "Connections" tab. You want it set to "never dial a connection"

the first step is to get your dad's computer working on the internet. once you got that working, then you work on the ICS.

make sure you setup your network in the tools, internet options, connections (i believe)...make sure you are going to connect through your father and not through a modem

when your dad's computer initiates the dial-up, does his computer surf the web fine? -- and can u surf the web when he manually dials out?
