Is what it says when I try to search for stuff. Sorry if this is a repost of some sort, but I can't find the solution on here otherwise, or haven't been able to.
I'm running a Powerbook on 10.3.9, and have allowed Gnuttela in File Sharing options. I am connected via wi-fi, & I don't know who the ISP is. Is there someone out there who knows what I need to do to get this to run properly..?
Thanks very much in advance...

I assume you see a brickwall in front of the small globe in the bottom right corner of the LW window. That would mean that there is somewhere a firewall blocking you to access the network. Could be your wi-fi router. Check out this thread and read through the links there. The answer for you might be somewhere.:

In case you can't find anything and you want to post back here, please give some specs of your system and configuration:
1. OS version? (eg: Windows 98)
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram?
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.)
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers?
7. Where are you trying to connect from (home, school, work, etc.)?
8. What version of Limewire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version.
9. Who is your isp provider (Internet Service Provider)?
10. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up.
11. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.
12. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here:
