iWeb 1.1.1 won't publish

iWeb won't publish my sites. It keeps asking me to sign in to .mac even though I already signed in and it says my password is valid. My DSL provider is SBC. This just started happening, I believe after an update. But I am not sure. I have looked at apple's support forums, other people have this problem but no one has answered this question.

Please help!
 
I tried the permissions repair. No luck. I am currently using 135 MB/815MB of space on my iDisk. There is something fundamentally wrong with .Mac. This is happening when I try to publish anything. I gave up on iWeb and trying to share my photos. I just tried to publish my calendar with iCal. Same problem. I can't imagine that my 6 little entries on my calendar is causing me to exceed my space limitations. This is what happens.
1. I select Publish in iCal.
2. It says: "Your .Mac configuration is not correct. Please set up your .Mac account." (which to my knowledge i've already done)
3. I click on Open .Mac preferences pane
4. I sign in on the pref pane, it say the password is valid.
5. I return to iCal, rept steps 2 - 4 infinitely

I noticed after signing in and getting my password is valid, I click on Sync on the .Mac pref pane either everything is greyed out or it tells me that .Mac doesn't recognize my username and password and I need to re-enter them.

When I click on iDisk and (attempt to) turn on Syncing it asks me for my password, then the little wheel beside "iDisk syncing starting up" goes round and round without end.

Needless to say, my calendar never gets published, my websites never get published and I feel like I wasted my $$ purchasing .Mac b/c since i bought it, it has never worked. But, the support period with Apple is up now. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I finally got the solution from Apple Support as top why my iWeb was not publishing. It kept asking me to login and although it acceptem my password it still asked me to LOGIN. The problem was in my keychain. Here is what solved it.
1. Open Keychain access in Utilities folder
2. Delete each item with a .Mac label in the KIND column (I had none)
3. Quit Keychain access.
4. Open System Preferences and click on .Mac
5. Reenter your Mac member name & password
6. Restart your computer

To create a new keychain
1. Click on FINDER icon in the dock
2. Click on the Home icon in your HOME folder
3. Open the Library folder and move the Keychains folder to the desktop
4. Restart the computer
After restarting reenter your .Mac member name and password in the Syatem Preferences and thenb try and publish. It worked for me after weeks of trying to solve the problem.
