Sorrym to keep on about this, but I am still having problems. i just
wondered, could there be something wrong with the networkmanager applet?
Could somebody help please?
Thank you.

If there is a problem with network manager, you could use wubi, an
alternative to network manager. It bills itself as "an open source
wired and wireless network manager for Linux which aims to provide a
simple interface to connect to networks with a wide variety of
settings", and allows you to do pretty much the same as Network
Manager. However, if you want a wicd applet, you'll have to set
'/opt/wicd/tray.py' to run at startup.
To install, you first need to remove network manager by opening a
terminal (Accessories > Terminal) and running
'sudo apt-get remove network-manager network-manager-applet'. When
this is done, run the command
'sudo apt-get install wicd'.

Well, I'm totally f****d. I tried to uninstall Network manager, and
installed WICD, it wouldnt connect, had problems with authentication.
Now I cannot connect to the internet at all. It just wont connect. How
can I get my internet connection back, to my netbook, now I dont have
internet.
