Trying to connect at schools is an issue for many people b/c schools often block p2p use, else they'll at least have a firewall. When LW is open, click Tools-Options & go to Bug report & click for an example. In the window that appears scroll down to the part that says: "Received incoming this session". If it says 'true' then LW has no problem with firewalls. If 'False' then you have a firewall issue.
Do you have XP's firewall on/off. There's instructions on LW's website about how to allow LW to get thru. Have you updated to XP SP2?

Which port is Kazaa running thru? You could even try the same port.
