Please sign up (https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users)
for the ubuntu-users mailing list.  That is the proper forum for
technical support.  I'm CCing them in this reply.

Please be more specific.  Let's start with the Internet.  A few questions:

Can this computer access the net through Windows?

How are you connected (wireless, wired, dial-up etc.)?

Do you have broadband?

Does the network use a router?

What is the model of your computer (and network card if you know it)?
