1) windows xp based computers have a habit of only recognizing the last usb setting u had the tp2 on from before the menu pops up so try to set it to internet sharing within the usb to pc menu before connecting, or u can download activesync 4.5 from ms which should have the drivers but this only applies to syncing and rom flashing, shouldnt have anything to do with tethering.

2)it is reccomended that a stealth tethering cab be installed when tethering, most custom roms have this feature cooked in so its usually not a concern

3)stealth tethering is when one tethers without their carrier being able to detect it. it is feared that if one is busted for tethering the carrier may 1) charge the person (which has happend to mighty mike and a few others ) 2) throttle the speed or even 3) terminate the contract/service.
