I've tried LimeWire, BitTorrent, eMule, and many others but I can never connect to the network.

could be the isp blocking the ports used for p2p. Try going into the options and changing the port number to something that isn't used and nowhere near the range the ISP's block. Also try making sure the port is opened to allow the free transfers. goto http://portforward.com for detailed instructions on this.
It could also be that the port you have selected for the p2p programs is used by another program and this won't allow them to work properly.

do you have a firewall
either on your computer or at the gateway of your router
you may have to set one on your comp to let the programs connect
or
you may have to set up port forwarding at your router
