Have you done a software update lately? I am not sure if there will still be updates being given for 10.6.5 the next Q would be- is your flash up to date?
How do you connect the net: dial up, DSL, cable, and do you have a wireless network at home? It may be a DNS thing. What error message are you getting? Or just nothing happens?

Are you on the iCloud?
