Default I have also tired everthing

I am a school teacher who just bought an iPod. I'm going to school for my masters in technology in education so I know little about what I'm doing....not a lot. I'm not real good at this forum thing. One of my students recommended LW. I installed it and it worked for about 3 days, then while I was using it my whole Internet service crashed. I reinstalled my Internet service and now LW does not work. I tried all the suggestions and it still does not work. One thing when I go to connections on LW it is empty when I put in some of the suggested IP's they don't stay there for very long. Could this be an issue???
Can you please help!!!
Thank you

MY COMPUTER STATS:
. Windows XP
2. What firewalls you have? PC Tools Firewall Plus (I just installed it "free" and turned off my xp firewass)
3. How much ram? 512 (buying more 2x as much)
4. Hard Disk space available? 40
5. Connection type? DSL
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Siemens SpeedStream 4200
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.12.14, Just installed Java 5.0.120.4
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Windstream
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? Says "The connection has timed out "
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. I've only had LW for a few weeks it only worked for a few days
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes, but it has been configured so that Limewire should always be allowed to connect.
