Default Can't Connect - no signs it's even attempting to do so

I can't connect to LW. Was using it the other day but had to restore my computer to factory settings after having issues with it. I subsequently reinstalled LW and now can't connect. It continually says "Starting Connection" in the bottom lower bar. The Connections tab is blank - there are no hosts or any activity indicating that attempts to connect are being made.

Any help would be appreciated.

1. Windows XP Home
2. McAfee firewall, windows firewall is disabled
3. 1 gb ram
4. 45 gb disk space available
5. Road runner cable ISP
6. d link wireless router
7. Connecting from home.
8. LW version 4.9.23 Pro; Java 1.4.2_05
9. Road runner ISP
10. Wen to http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ and the page said 'Your test worked!'.
11. Not sharing the connection with any other computers.
12. Was using LW (same version) but had to restore my computer to factory settings after having issues with it and subsequently reinstalled LW.
13. A firewall has been detected (blue world behind brick wall) I went to the sticky Connection problems? Check here first! and tried configuring the firewall per the instructions but when I click on the instructions for Mcafee at the bottom of the page, it takes me to a blank page.
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? NOT SURE
