Firestarter says I'm not connected to the internet

Ubuntu Users.
I'm still on a quest to get some kind of decent P2P application going.
I've abandoned MLDonkey in favour of aMule.
When reading online instructions on getting a highID, I came across
the advice that one should install Firestarter firewall to get control
of port forwarding.
But as soon as I set up port 4662 to be mapped to my local IP, I got
this message:
Failed to start Firewall. An unkown error occured. Please check your
network device settings, and make sure your internet connection is active.
Somewhere, something is stopping me from getting a decent connection
out to any P2P networks. Could this error have anything to do with that?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
