I'm using MAMP right now and I have used several versions for many years. The only times when I have encountered problems was when I tried to run another application that uses port 80, like Skype or Google Voice.
What other programs are you running? I have a hunch that there is something blocking port 80. Are you trying to view MAMP through a web browser or some type of IDE like Net Beans or Aptana? What happens when you try to bring up PHPmyadmin? Try disconnecting your Internet connection and see if that works.
