Default partial connection -- no connection?

I cannot do a successful search. Nothing ever comes up. The search window heading indicates 6 files / 27 MB available -- that can't be right. When I go into Preferences/Connections/Quick Connect, I have the following servers available: "router:limeware.com:6346", "connect1.gnutellanet.com:6346", and the same as the preceeding with connect "2", "3" and "4". I get nothing with those, but when I put in the ISP address, I get the 6 files available. I have a cable connection and my provider is Optimum Online; I don't believe that they are blocking anything. I am running OS 10.2. None of the Help files specify exactly how to make the connection. Also, when I do a search, my "sharing dot" is green and the lime rotates. What am I missing?

You are using an out of date version of LimeWire. Upgrade to the latest stable release, 3.5.8 or the latest beta, 3.6.3.

Thanks.
