Default Connection problem? or download problem? help!

I can bring LW up on my computer, but when I enter the search criteria, nothing happens. I've unisntalled and reinstalled, and that still didn't solve the problem. (BTW, I used LW extensively a few months ago when I first got my Ipod, and between then and now, it apparently stopped working)

Any ideas?

I meant to say it wasn't checked, so that wasn't the problem.

I have Comcast internet., and there's no brick wall in front of my globe...

It appears that comcast sometimes blocks p2p use, in certain areas, so they might be blocking you depending on exactly where you live. If you don't want to say, try googling Comcast p2p and your location
