Default Limewire suddenly stopped working

Hi, recently, my Limewire stopped working. I searched around a bit on different sites, and nothing has worked so far. I tried clearing my preferences, reinstalling Limewire, deleting potentially interfering programs, even uninstalling my firewall and reinstalling,but nothing has worked. I can not figure out the problem, so I have come here in hope of some guidance.

System Details:
1. Windows XP Home Edition SP2
2. Zonealarm and Windows firewall, but I don't use windows
3. 448 MB RAM
4. Free Space:88.7 GB
5. DSL
6. Modem & router: Verizon GT704WG
7. Home
8. Limewire 4.12.6 & Java 1.5.0_09
9. Verizon Online DSL
10. http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ successfuly goes to page with text 'Your test worked!'
11. I have two other laptops sharing my router with me. Both using ethernet cords.
12. This is a new problem with an experienced user
13. I do see the brick wall in front of the blue world icon.

You could try Port Forwarding...Follow these instructions carefully...

BUT after a little research about your modem/router I found this....

Port fowarding did not fix the problem.
I've read a little bit on the UPNP, could you assist me through that process.
