I no longer have an XP box, so I don't know if that's my issue. I've searched and searched and haven't come up with anyone else who's had the same issue. Any links to point me in the right direction? I refuse to believe I have the only Touch on the planet incapable of doing this.

Since you're new, I'm going to assume you're on the stock rom WM6.0 from Sprint? Is that correct?
And, are you considering flashing to a new rom to get GPS and RevA?
If so, you should do that 1st, and that will probably solve your problem.
If not, here's 2 methods that worked for me.
1#
Make sure your phone is able to sync w/ your pc.
Disconnect the usb cable.
When you're trying to share the internet, depending on your registry settings, you may need to have an active data connection.
Open internet explorer, and navigate to a page that will take some time to load. I usually go to the desktop version of youtube.
While that's loading, open internet sharing, click "connect" then connect the USB cable.
If that worked your set. Just get an active connection going, and then start the internet sharing program, then connect the cable.

Check these settings in your registry and post what it says.
I had to change these when I was on the stock rom in order for the internet sharing to work w/o doing step #1.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\WModem
CheckProfile = 1
Multi-NAI = 0
WModemDUN = 1
