Need some more info here....  Assuming you're mining in a pool - which pool?  Do you have the hostname right?  Did you set the port correctly?

Can you give me some more information about your configuration?

What operating system are you using?
What hardware are you mining on CPU or GPU and what model?

perhaps bitcoin, the program, is still downloading blocks. that does take quite a few hours now days.
or what about rpcallowip=all in your bitcoin.conf file?
also know that ati drivers contain everything you need now days. no need for extra ati downloads.
post us your console logs from guiminer i assume?

I recommend giving a look over the miner installation guide. (http://bitclockers.com/forums/index.php?topic=3.0)
