Angry Connect at home, but not at school

From home on a phone dialup, it works great. At school, via a T1 ethernet connection, it finds no connections. I've entered the IP my TCP/IP control panel shows into the "Force IP" area of Limewire's Options, with no luck (don't know if this helps anyway). It's worked for two years from school, and just stopped working three weeks ago. I've gotten 2.4.4, but I don't think it's the version, since it works from home and not from school. Any ideas?

Schools, Universities and Companies usually have a firewall/proxy.
Maybe they dont want their bandwidth used for downloading but for doing research or work stuff so they have blocked the gnutella port 6346. However you might try to connect to non 6346 ports, that may work.
