Do you have activesync on the recipient computer? Are you starting internet sharing BEFORE connecting?

Sorry... a rather limited amount/attempt of help

I do have acticesync on the computer but it is not connected when using the connection sharing- Also, I do start internet sharing beforehand... Any ideas? I can't figure this out to save my life...

you have to connect activesync up first and let it sync the phone. once the sync is done then you can initiate the internet sharing. if your on the sero plan you need to have the regedit done first before it will accept the PAM connection

what works for me if starting ICS on the phone, hitting connect (it will then say "Check USB Connection") and plugging in the USB, i have USB connections disabled in activesync so it doesnt connect

i usually have to plug it in and unplug a few times before it work properly
