Frostwire (or Limewire) problem message?

Question

I recently downloaded Frostwire
Whenever I try to search for something, I get this message:
Frostwire is currently connecting to the network. Your search may not return many results until you are fully connected to the network.

What do I do?
It's been 'connecting' for quite some time now.

Next to where it says Starting Connection, there is a picture and it says "Frostwire has detected a firewall"
Does this have anything to do with it?

Answer 1

Ya, the firewall does slow it down a bit, but it also keeps out malware. I'd reinstall frostwire, thats all I can say, or Limewire.
