If you want to save the recording as an mp3 file you will also need the LAME encoder add-on for Audacity.
To record audio from internet you set the source in Audacity to 'stereo mix'. On my system I find that this is very sensitive so you may need to do a few practice sessions to get an appropriate setting for the record level.

Do you have any form of Norton anti-virus software?

[webbo3]

no i have virgin medias own pc guard, why ?

You should be OK then. Norton AV can interfere with Audacity during recording unless you take steps to prevent it.
If you have no Norton then things should go fine.
