That is wild dude. I have never had an isp home or business that doesn't
support port 80 listening. Now I have been more than limited at times with
other ports but with the proper applications and servers installed I don't
think I have ever been unable to use a port.

That's pretty wild that they don't even let businesses host their own
sites. I'd complain to them long before I complain to dyndns. They
must have some account that lets you use port 80, right?
