Now that you mention the correct username/password combo, I think 
earthlink uses some goofy way of entering those.  You either have to 
prepend or append something to the username before it will let you login 
using a standard dialer.  The details elude me right now, haven't had 
earthlink for couple years.

Yes, I know prepend isn't a real word...  :-/
