You are using the bitcoin guiminer (SHA256) and not Scrypt-GUIMiner ... so that will never work...

You probably will have 120kH/s for Scrypt mining, which means, you will not find a block in solomining most likely (as you are expected 1 block in several months at current difficulty)

You're using SHA256 algorithm to mine a Scrypt coin, which can't/won't happen. Try adding "--scrypt" in the extra flags field.
Also, go to "View" > "Show Summary" and also "View" > "Show Console", it will show you if there's errors or what's happening.
It WILL put out errors for the default miner, it might not if you switch to the cgminer option (File > New Miner).
Better to get Scrypt-GUIMiner
