my computer won't search
 

I have had limewire for about 2 years..nothing has changed. I have dsl, windows xp. When I type a name in search, it puts the name up like it is searching but nothing is coming up. So I updated to a newer version (not PRO) and nothing. I have checked to make sure my firewall is allowing limewire and it is. I have checked everything else that I could think of. I don't know what is wrong. Any ideas?
Thanks
Tiffany
