I have never seen any SL viewer say "searching for Internet".  You may have some other program in your computer is sending that.  It is quite possible, however, that you have a firewall or anti-virus program blocking access to Second life.  Take a look at these two URLs for information about whitelisting your SL viewer with those programs:

If you are on a college campus or at work, your local IT department may be blocking access or throttling bandwidth.  You ought to check with them, and review your campus or company policy about personal use of server resources.
