Default Excellent connection, can't find anything

I've just finished setting up the firewall and LimeWire and now I have an excellent connection.

I can search for things but nothing is found.

We're running on a router which I opened up completely to LW on this machine using a static IP I set up especially for it. In fact all the other computers have been set up to static IPs just in case.

Even though the router has a firewall LW is now saying it cannot detect a firewall because it's opened right up - DMZ not supported by the router but I'm emulating it.

We're with AOL UK but no AOL connection software is installed as I've set the router up for a permanent connection.

Any ideas why I'm not getting any search results?

PROBLEM SOLVED

I visited www.mininova.org and downloaded the latest (cracked) version.
