wondering why is just really nice
Default

A couple of different things we can try here...
Firstly... Try uninstalling your Java from the add/remove programs and then re-install the JRE 5.11 offline version....(4th one down)
Java SE Downloads - Previous Release - JDK 5

No luck...Try deleting your preference folder...
Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should

Still no luck...Could you have a look at the modem/router (the one that connects you to the internet) turn it upside down and see what it's name is and the model number...

Also with your test page not working can mean that your ISP is shaping your connection now...CableVision/Metrocast are known to do that...

Your modem/router doesn't have a Nat Firewall, so that's not causing the conflict...
Do you have this update from Micorsoft...
Microsoft's Security Update (KB931261) for WinXP...You can check in your add/remove programs..
Do you mind if I ask where you are from, so I can check your ISP out ??

Cable Vision, Mexico shape p2p during peak times, so that would explain why you are not getting the connection..
Bad ISPs - AzureusWiki

You could give them a ring and find out what their peak times are...
