Default Can't connect

Has used basic limewire for about a year then a few weeks ago stopped working. Opens up fine but says 'Establishing a connection' but never does. Purchased Limewire Pro thinking that would help! No! McAfee says it is allowing fullaccess but still a picture of firewall on bottom of limewire screen. Same message came up with both versions of limewire.
1. Windows XP
2. What firewalls you have? McAfee (don't know if there is anything else)
3. How much ram? Don't know, but assume plenty.
4. Hard Disk space available? 112GB
5. Connection type? BT Broadband
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? BTVoyager 220V ADSL voice router
7. Connecting from : home
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have?
Limewire 4.12.11PRO, Java 1.5.0_0.3
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)? Don't know (how would I find this out)
10. Do this simple test for us. Worked fine
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. No
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user. Have used it for sevral months fine.
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface? Yes
