Long time user of Limewire, having some issues though....

Using Limewire 4.16.6
Java 1.6.0_05

If I type in a song or artist, a box appears and says

"Limewire is currently connecting to the network.Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected"

I look down at the lower left hand screen of my monitor and notice I have 1 small green bar up and running, the other 4 larger bars are still in Red.

Limewire was working just fine, with no connection woes prior to me doing an upgrade/new version upload of Limewire which I did about a month ago. Ever since then, I've been having really really slow connecting speeds, and right now it won't even connect at all, even though you type in an artist/title and you can see the blue beginning to fill up in the artists/title box.

I do have a Kapersky anti software, but I've used this in the passed when Limewire was working just fine.

Can someone please help me
