Default Not even attempting to connect... Mac OS X 10.4.8

Another connection issue. My Limewire client doesn't look like it's even attempting to connect. When I open up the "Connections" panel there is no action and at top in the status bar it says "0 Connecting". I've tried just about everything suggested in these forums with no luck getting Limewire to work on my new Mac Pro.

Test works fine.

11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
Also using Acquisition and Azureus (no problems there)

12. Is this a your 1st try at FW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
First try on Mac with this software setup, but I've used LimeWire elsewhere with no issues.
