Can you give us a total desciption of your set up: 1. OS 9.? 2. What firewalls you have, 3. ram, 4. HDD space available, 5. Connection type, 6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers, 7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
These details are vital if you want us to find out what your connection problem is.

Try leaving LW for at least half an hr to see if it connects.

Also make sure you have the last update of Java for OS9: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120209

Don't forget to Re-Build your Desktop after installing any software: restart your comp whilst holding down both the Option & Apple keys until you see the question asking to rebuild. Press ok to do this.

You are using Mac OS 9 ? If not, why did you post to a 4 year old thread that is irrelevant to your problem.
