Default Connecting Problem

I have a Vista system and cannot connect to LW. I have checked my McAfee security settings and a
even disabled my firewall settings. Not sure of RAM and Harddisc space but sure there is plenty. I connect through a wireless cable modem, Motorola model SBG900 at my home. I have LW 5.0.11 and Java 1.6.0. My ISP is Comcast. I tried the test an got a page load error (Network timeout). I have 1 other computer in the house that shares the modem. This is my first attempt at LW and I tried installing 4.14.10 version and when it didn't work I followed all instructions on uninstalling/reinstalling. When I look in advanced tools I see that I am behind a firewall and do not support firewall transfers. As far as whether I am port forwarding or UPnP enabled, I haven't a clue what that means. Like I said I do have McAfee installed and I live in the US.
I sure would appreciate some simple step by step help for this as it's been a little frustrating and since I paid for LW, I would like to be able to use it.
Thanks in advance.
