Unhappy Not connecting, no search results

I looked through previous posts on connection and search result problems, and I am still at a loss. I installed LW today and tried searching for some songs, but nothing shows up. There are only 3 bars that are lit up green and there is a brickwall next to those bars.

Here is some more info:
1. OS version? XP
2. What firewalls you have? Windows Firewall
3. How much ram? not sure
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? cable
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? not sure
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? apartment
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LW 4.14.12, java 1.5.0_06
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? time warner
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? It says "your test worked"
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. not sure
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. new problem
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? _ click here to ee Sample image YES
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? I don't know
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? Some people might not be aware that their security suite includes a firewall Kaspersky Antivirus
16. What country are you living in? Sometimes there are ISPs with the same name in more than one country (eg Clearwire in the USA & also in Ireland). USA

Hope that helps and that you can help me. Thanks!!
