It means that another device on your network (wireless or Ethernet) has the same IP address as your computer.
An IP address is A Internet Protocol address, a numerical label assigned to each device (e.g., computer, printer) participating in a computer networkthat uses the Internet Protocol for communication.
If this happens you would need to change your the IP address of the device, you can check what device by going to your router admin web page. Details depends on what router you own.
You can check your PowerBooks IP address by going to system preferences and network. If you connect by Airport check the IP address of the Airport card, else check the IP address of the Ethernet if that's how you connect to the Internet.
