I am new to this site and new to IBook. I was just given one and it has OS 9.2. I don't know how to get onto the internet or what icon to click on. Please help this newbie ASAP>
I'm a newbie too and a total apple dumb-dumb. I have no clue about your question. I just wanted to say welcome. The folks on this site have helped me so much. I'm sure one will help you out soon...

OK, do you see the multi-coloured apple in the left upper corner of the screen? Click there, and then point to "Control Panels" (I hope I remember correctly the name). In there you will find the control panel "TCP/IP", which will open once you click it. From it you can provide the necessary information in order to connect to the internet.

Wow. 9.2. That was some time ago for some of us; I'll be darned if I can remember well enough to walk you through it without causing some problems.
Somebody will likely still have an old machine running 9.2 or so. Wait a few days for everyone to look through the threads.
Try checking the Help menu and searching for "Internet" "TCP".
You might want to check the APple Discussion board for OS 9:

Wish I could be of more help, but five years is a long time.
