    So, when I press multiplayer and choose battle.net, after some time this image shows:
    [img width=640 height=480]http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/2105/51468855lt5.png[/img]
    Any idea how to fix this?

    It's not detecting your internet, but is detecting your LAN.

    Give me more information on your system configuration, including router information and internet connection, etc.

    Then double check your patches, make sure they're installed correctly. :p

    I don't have a lan. How to give you info? Where to find it?
    If I install patches the game won't start because it's not original.

    I don't think there's point in solving your problem because when you connect to battle.net it checks if you have the latest patch and it doesn't let you play with an old game IIRC. So even if you could connect to battle.net, you would still need to patch the game, which is not an option for you...

    So I'll just have to wait for StarCraft2 to come out and buy the original. :(
    Ok. Thanks everyone! :good:

    Why would you need to wait for SC2? ~5 euros for a great game is a bargain.
    Get out and buy it NOW :)

    For that I would have to go in another country or at least city because in my country all the CD shops sell copies for very cheap price. DVD = €1-€2 :( When StarCraft2 comes out I'm going to the other country and buying the original. :good:

    Dude, it's easy to buy in e-shops, they will ship you even if you live in Antarctica.

    I know, but... I'll just wait for StarCraf2. If I could wait this much, I could wait a little bit longer.

    If there's an ISP I'm sure there are shops that work with PC and if there are, there must be a store that sells original discs. And what's the point in waiting for SC2? Will you be praying for a store to be built by then or what?

    Also if you're in another town/city for a particular reason you could make a slight detour into a decent store and buy it there with your spare change. But I'm not trying to talk you into this. I mean, it's not me who misses out on all the fun :p

    ROFL, where are you living? In Laos or something? :D

    Or maybe... in North Korea? Be carefull when crossing border, it's mined and they can shoot you! Today's top headline : North Korea's citizen had been shot this afternoon after trying to get StarCraft II copy by crossing demilitarised zone between Koreas. Witnesses say he was was imitating himself as fictional animal called Zerg while running between charged mines, now he's playing in hospital SC2, special guest, Boxer - StarCraft progamer, was invited to entertain lucky young man. Noth Korean government refused to comment this situation...

    ROFL I totally imagined a 15 year old trying to run on all fours and gurgling like a Zergling :D

    Yeah LT tell us which country you live in or at least what's next to you ;)
