Default Lime Wire won't connect - isp block

Hi all, I am having problems connecting to L/W - it shows that there is no internet connectivity or I am behind a firewall. I believe that my isp is blocking p2p's. I have spoke with them and was informed of a similar block. The smartass then informed me that if I could get it to work to "feel free to try". So, after many nights of trying I'm asking for help.

any help to resolve this problem is greatly appreciated. Also when limewire is connecting, firefox or IE will not load a page. I thought that was a little weird. if I disconnect, my pages load properly.

1. OS version? 2000Pro
2. What firewalls you have? Zone Alarm - disabled
3. How much ram? 1024
4. Hard Disk space available? 35gb
5. Connection type? Wireless Lan 512 down 128 up
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? N/A
7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home
8. What version of (LW) & Java do you have? 4.13.0 Pro /1.6.0-00
9. Who is your ISP ? ruralcomm.net
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? 'Your test worked!'.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? No
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I used it all of the time in city, now i've moved to the country with a different (the only high speed ISP)
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? AVG - disabled
16. What country are you living in? USA
