Default Firewalled, Can't Connect

CAN'T GET PAST A FIREWALL, CAN"T CONNECT.

Hope the following information leads to a solution that you may have already encountered, but I have not been able to resolve as of yet.
HELP TOWARDS AN ANSWER WOULD BE

1. Windows XP
2. Firewalls: Windows
3. 512 RAM
4. 35Gb Free
5. Wireless Broadband
6. Router brand name: Motorola model numbers: WR850G
7. Connecting from Home
8. version of LimeWire (LW) 4.16.2 & Java 1.6.0_03
9. Comcast
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? Test Works!!
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Main cable comes to cable modem, have a broadband cable going to a PC and another broadband cable going to the wireless router. Have wireless router, 1 other laptop connects thru that.
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. 1st try at LW, but have looked at tons of support pages.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? YES_ click here to see Sample image
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I've tried BOTH Port Forwarding and UPnP settings.
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall. I've tried by exiting all security programs and running nothing. Normall i run TrendMicroPC-cillin and Symnatec.
16. What country are you living in? USA
