By "system" do you mean the app or the OS? Wow, either way, they've got you
good! :-( Perhaps rather than blocking specific ports, they only allow
certain ports (like 80=HTTP, 23=SMTP, etc.).
Hmmm. You're running NT, right? What happens when you launch the built-in
telnet app and telnet to port 8000 or 8080?
Start -> Run ->
Open => telnet
Connect -> Remote System ->
Host Name => lugnet.com
Port => 8080
TermType => vt100
Does it display any text in that window?
