Default IVE DONE EVERYTHING! Still wont connect!!

OK, so ive been using limewire since they first came out. About three months ago, after using the SAME computer and same version of limewire here at my office, one day i just couldnt connect. Didnt do anything differently. I just figured it was limewire. Weeks later Still cant connect... I then noticed i had a nasty *** virus in my computer, so i figured THATS was the problem, and decided it was time to get a new computer. So now im on my new computer... STILL CANT CONNECT! I went thru VIRTUALLY every thread here possible and done all i can in settings and what-not.... Just cant figure it out!! Anyone have any opinions???

This sucks!! i have a list building up on my desk of songs i want...

***My program is saying its detecting a firewall (which it has ALWAYS said anyways, But i went in and shut all my firewalls off at one point to see if that had anything to do with it. Even when they are off its still saying "limewire is detecting a firewall".

ANYONE CAN HELP, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I Thought About That... But Why All The Sudden, One Day, Would It Just Stop Working?? I Mean... Nothing Different Was Done. Start Limewire, Type In The Song I Want, Download It... Done!?!?
