- The router is connected to the ethernet port of my computer. I have enabled internet connection sharing on the USB modem. The problem is that the internet LED on the router is not glowing.

You can disable ICF, but Microsoft advises:
'You should enable ICF on the internet connection of any computer that is connected directly to the internet.'
Despite this advice, you may be able to disable ICF safely. Most home routers have built-in firewalls, and you can install other firewall programs to replace the firewall provided in Windows XP. If you don't have any other firewall protection, it is best to leave ICF running unless it prevents you from connecting to the internet. In that case, you can disable it temporarily.
How to Disable the Windows XP Firewall
Here's how to disable the Windows XP internet connection firewall when it's interfering with your computer's internet connection:
Open Control Panel by clicking Start > Control Panel.
Choose Network and Internet Connections, and then click Network Connections in the Control Panel icon section. If you're viewing Control Panel in Classic View, double-click on the Network Connections link. Either option opens a list of available network connections.
Right-click the connection that you want to disable the firewall on and then choose Properties.
Go to the Advanced tab and find the option in the Internet Connection Firewall section called Protect my computer and network by limiting or preventing access to this computer from the Internet.
This option represents the internet connection firewall. Uncheck the box to disable the firewall.
Windows XP SP2 uses Windows Firewall, which can be disabled in a slightly different way than is described here.

You can create wireless Ad Hoc network. But what about the Windows XP? Personally, I used a third-party software to share my internet connection with my room mates when using Windows XP (Professional). Though, I did not like to use any third-party software for this purpose, there was no option left. I failed to share my connection without using the Windows XP access point software. But later, I get to know how to share internet connection in Windows XP.

1. The third-party applications are more complex and use a large amount of memory. Obviously, this slow downs your machine. Where the only purpose is to share the internet connection, why would you use a complex applications?
2. When you use any third-party tool, there may be some issues with the security and privacy.
