Default Can't Connect

Hi everyone.This is my problem. I have installed the latest versions of limewire pro & Java. it all opens ok but starting connection stays red bar the first dot. i have uninstalled and re installed both several times. I have 2 gig ram 50 gig free space vista home billion route modem all updates performed. I have a second computer with xp home hooked up to the same modem and zonealarm and it works fine on it. i tried it on my new computer first before the xp one and it would not work. I have no idea so would be thankful for any advice. Thanks
