Default cant connect

Ok so ive used limewire before and this is my first time having issues. i just moved to a new area and have not connected my internet, so im turned my laptop and the wifi and guess what, i have many unsecured connections from neighboors. I cant get my service installed till another month and i really want to use limewire. I know its not right to borrow your neighbors connection but just for checking my email its working fine now. So i tried connecting and i see the firewall on the bottom corner and it never connects. i try searching something and it says still connecting result may not come in till connected but it never connects .So i beleive my wifi connection from my neighbor is probably whats blocking me. Is there a way to get around this so i can connect or am i going to have to wait till the phone company hooks up my internet?
