Depends how old a version you installed. I've connected using LW 4.16 through to 5.5.10 over the past two days (on both mac & windows) & connected well & downloaded easily. Did you use File_Girl71's Fix whilst LW was closed?

Someone told me yesterday they saw a lot of LW 4 users out there now compared to previously this year.

I am sure the numbers of users may have dropped a little, but still lots out there i can assure you.
