what version of Livecode and what platform (Desktop or Mobile) are you using?
What exactly does not work? Do you get any errors? If yes which ones?
Can you show us the script that does not work?

The internet library is always available in the IDE and for standalones you need to select
the library in the standalone builder settings.

It will be under File>standalone application settings

In my experience, for desktop apps I leave "search for required inclusions when saving standalone applications" checked and it does the job of including the correct libraries/externals. For android, you have to specifically check the internet permission under File>standalone application settings>android
like this:
Standalone Application Settings for ArrayExperiment - Android_003.png
I'm not sure about iOS, but I imagine it's something similar. Hope this was helpful.

The problem with libURLDownloadToFile on LC 7.0 is that it doesn't work AT ALL in the IOS standalone builder. It works in 6.7 though and it now works in LC 7.0.1 RC3 and RC4. The revZipExtractItemToFile tArchive command does not work in LC 7.0.1 RC3 and RC4 on IOS however. Bug report filed.
