Been trying to log on for 2 days now everything goes smooth until I get to the load screen (the one where the blue bar runs across) once it hits that it shrinks down and closes. The message that pops up is Connection Failed There was a error with this connection. What should I do

This sounds like a firewall/router issue to me... I'm guessing that all stuff up to that point is done across common ports like 80, but by the time you're at the blue bar, it's trying to open other ports to communicate over.
If you're using a router, simplest test is to unplug your computer from the router and plug it directly into your cable/DSL modem. See if you can connect then... if so, you'll need to open ports on your router or do some other security configuration.
As far as software firewall, try disabling it (if you have one enabled). Remember that XP and Vista both have built-in software firewalls that are defaulted to on (and often revert back to enabled status after every update).
