Access internet and ssh into the Pi from a Windows computer

I'm trying to directly connect my raspberry pi to my computer running Windows 7. I would like to get internet through an ethernet cable connected to the computer so that I don't need a wireless adapter on my pi. The pi is running arch linux and from what I can tell, its ip address for the eth0 device is 192.168.1.87.

You need to be running ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) [*] on the Windows side. Then it should "just work".

[*] Or whatever they are calling it now. I stopped tracking Windows's endless marketing games at XP.

If you're using a pass through connection, the Windows system will need to have two NICs. Alternatively, get a router and connect both devices to the router and the router to your DSL/Cable modem.
