have been using limewire for a few years, never had a problem with connecting and all of a sudden its stopped. dont know what i've done other than update some software from apple but this has never proved to be problem before, hopefully someone can help me....have tried everything i can think off

[wondering why]

It's more than likely because you are in school accommodation...Many schools block p2p ports...Have you asked anyone else if they are experiencing the same problems...
