This is assuming you have the software for your WIFI card already installed and it's a recognized device. (you say you have a signal?) If not, *device drivers and *applications from your manufacture for Win98SE/ME should work.

If your already at that stage then it sounds like the Browser isn't configured to use any connections.

Internet Explorer > Connections> LAN Settings> Automatic Detect Settings or something to that extent should get the browser config'd to connect with the your current network config (WIFI). Might have to restart the browser to save the setting.

Am I warm?

Within IE's Connection tab is there a button to "setup" a connection? There may be an Icon for IE properties inside the Control Panel application that will help you get your wireless recognized by IE.
