If LW's not connected, try the fixes here.
If LW Will Not Connect
If nothing there helps, post back with your system details

The orange warning banner with the padlock was added because there was a bogus LW update showing up in search results. It's a 75.7 KB .exe & shows up as "Urgent LimeWire update - download & install now". If people download that thing they could end up infected. To try to prevent people from downloading a dangerous file, the warning banner was added to LW's interface.

The padlock symbol doesn't apply to music, movies etc...just to LW updates.
