Arrow 5 bars - but still unable to download?!

Hey everyone, I know this is my first post but if you can help, I'd really appreciate it.

1. OS version? WINDOWS XP SP2
2. What firewalls you have? WINDOWS AND NORTON 2007
3. How much ram?NOT AN ISSUE
4. Hard Disk space available?20 GB
5. Connection type? (eg: dialup, broadband, cable, etc.) CABLE
6. Modem & router brand name & model numbers? NOT AN ISSUE
7. Where are you trying to connect from (house, appartment complex, school, student accomodation, work, etc.)? HOME
8. What version of LimeWire (LW) & Java do you have? (Go to LW's menu Help>About LW...) Will show both LW & Java version. LATEST
9. Who is your ISP provider (Internet Service Provider)?ROGERS (CANADA)
10. Do this simple test for us. Using your browser go here: http://www3.limewire.com:6346/ The page should say 'Your test worked!'. What happens when you go there? I GOT YOUR TEST WORKED
11. Are you sharing the connection with other computers or p2p sharing programs? If yes, please give details of set up. MORPHEUS
12. Is this a your 1st try at LW or is this a new problem with an experienced user.NEW PROBLEM
13. Do you see a brick wall in front of the blue world icon at the bottom of LW's interface?YES

14. For those using a modem/router, how is your modem/router set up...are you port forwarding or is UPnP enabled?NOT SURE


So here's my story. My computer's hard drive died last week so I threw that one out and installed a new one. I updated everything and it is working perfectly. The only thing is that I can't download from p2p's anymore.

With limewire, I have 5 bars appearing but a firewall symbol appearing too.
Norton is set to allow limewire as is Windows Firewall.

Before my computer crashed I was able to dowload normally so I don't think that it's a hardware issue.

Please help me...I feel like such a looser not being able to download. It's my life.

Thanks,
Pat.
