Unhappy I need help to connect to LW using Mac OSX

Hi!

I am a bigg fan of limewire, I recently moved to Mexico to my cousins house and have no computer so I am using her's. It's a Mac OSX and so I downloaded Limewire and it was working perfectly well until a week or so later it decided not to connect again! AW!!! SO, I decided to look for help, in the web page and in this foum, but most threads are for a Windows! (not good for me!!), but the worst part is that I am not very fluent in Mac!! hihi!

Ive tried everything I can. I've even deleted LW and started al over again, but it won't help. so if you could help me I would very much appreciate it!!

1. OS version? OSX Version 10.2.8
2. What firewalls you have?
3. How much ram? I says Memory 512 MB (I hope this znswers this question)
4. Hard Disk space available?
5. Connection type? Wireless Cable connection
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? Dunno
7. Where are you trying to connect from Appartment complex
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? LW 4.12.11
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Cablevision (in Mexico)
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? A pop-up opens saying: Could not open the page “http://www3.limewire.com:6346/” because Safari couldn’t connect to the server “www3.limewire.com”.
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. Nope
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. New problem
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?yes

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?
