What I think yo are seeing is that you must be fully connected to THE network (that is the Gnutella network).
If you are having problems, have a good look at this thread and then, if you still need help, let us know.

In short, you should be showing an excellent or turbo charged connection but if you cannot make any searches you may have some kind of problem.
I hope this helps
