First of all tel me about , r u using proxy server????
If yes is it a Linux or in Windows?
If u r using a proxy server....., Just check ur ip-address using
#ifconfig
if it shows ip.., then it means u r connected to LAN, if not then u have 2 configure it.
just give ip-address of ur PROXY SERVER IN MOZILLA BROWSER SETTINGS..
After that ur internet will work

ok
go to
panel->Preferences->network proxy
select manual proxy configration
then give ip-address of ur Proxy-server & corresponding port
After that
click on details->Use authentication
then give username & password there

I think it will work after that

Gaurav,
 
    I think he want to check on the squid.conf where the authentication option is enabled.

Users must be added to the squid login by using  htpasswd?

Hi dragoncity....
He told already that he is using Windows Proxy server .........not linux.. , So acc to me httpasswd is command used to ADD NCSA users not Windowzz.........

What u thinks?
