How do I password my network when I'm sharing my internet?

I have an imac, which i have an USB mobile internet stick in, and from my imac i share the internet via the airport built in to my mothers MBP. But i cant work out how to password my network after i click "Internet Sharing" in the Sharing area of System Prefs???

Click on the AirPort Options button in the bottom right corner of the Sharing preferences while you have selected Internet Sharing.
