Angry Limited connection and firewall

I've tried all that I've read. Deleted limewire from C drive and re-installed, deleted Norton, turned off firewall, turned it on but allowed limewire as an exception. I only have one bar and the firewall icon is on. PLEASE HELP! I've used Limewire in the past before getting new hard drive.
