No Connection; all connecting orqueued

[grinch]

Hi Everyone! Like a lot of users, I'm fairly a novice and LW was such a joy. In the last couple of days my connections went to nothing. Once I did get a "firewall" message, so I disabled the firewall. I tried all the recommendations: tweek the number of slot for up/down loads, tweek the bandwidth, force and change port addresses, ran the "test page" and it was successfull. I'm running XP SP2 to a cable modem (ISP Optimum), LW is 4.10.5 and Java is 1.5.0_06. Based on posted information, I called the ISP and he had me run a test which showed a 555 Kbps rate and he test packet delivery which came up at 100%. Now I sit here with 5 uploads sharing 1KBps and averaging 5 days to upload. My downloads indicate 12 in "connecting" status and about 120 in "queued" status. Any hints or spikes I came push down the line???
