Are you just trying to log on or are you trying to join a specific server? If the latter, odds are you were banned from whatever server that may be.

In the case of the former, the only thing I can think of is reinstalling. Have you played online before with your current game disc/ CD key? If so, when did it stop working?

If you still have the receipt from when you bought the game, take it back. If the online CD key isn't working most stores will allow for an exchange. A lot of games get CD keys stolen/cracked at some point so people who legally bought it occasionally don't get to play online because someone illegally used their CD key.

Another question, have you registered your game with LucasArts? If not then try doing so it might just confirm you as the legitimate owner of the game and whomever is using the key is out of luck.

registering makes absolutely no difference when you register on the page you just have an account nothing more
(it doesnt confirm you as owner of any game nor does it let you enter ahything beyond email, password etc.)
