Well i'm posting this because my girlfriend tried to get on to her friends (mac) wireless connection and must have changed some settings. No wireless networks are found now. It still says it's trying to connect to the (mac) connection. What should i do?

It might not have worked because the wireless connection would be protected with a password, and either WAP or WEP

Don't understand the post - no networks are found but it's still trying to connect to a network that's not there?

Is she trying to connect to a router (infrastructure) or to another adapter (ad-hoc)

As go the power stated, she'll need the wep or wap key and the ssid of the network if her friend has disabled broadcasting the ssid
