So I connect to the internet through an HTTP proxy server that uses usernames and passwords and I cannot connect...

Download the latest version of LimeWire, go to Tools -> Option, Advanced -> Proxy, and enter your proxy's information.

sorry I should have entered the other info, I am a limewire pro subscriber, I've entered all my info into settings but the box specifically says that users who connect through an HTTP proxy cannot use a username and password because it doesnt work, yet that is how my proxy functions...

Well, LimeWire doesn't support HTTP proxies that require authentication, there is not much you could do about it.
