Default Never connects to Limewire!!

Getting a "Limewire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network" when I do a search. It used to work ok.

1. OS version? Mac OS X 10.4.11
2. What firewalls you have? firewalls are OFF
3. How much ram? 512GB? or 1MB, not sure which one is ram
4. Hard Disk space available? 41.3 GB
5. Connection type? broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? not sure
7. Where are you trying to connect from? Home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? Limewire 4.12.14, java 1.5.0_13
9. Who is your ISP (Internet Service Provider)? adam internet
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? Safari can’t open the page.
Safari could not open the page “http://www3.limewire.com:6346/” because the server is not responding.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? one other family member is connecting to network also on his laptop
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user? new problem with old user
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes, even though under 'sharing' preferences my firewall setting is 'off'
14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled? no idea what this means
15. What security programs are you using (antivirus etc)? none that I am aware of (mac user)
16. What country are you living in? Australia
