I have a server and my isp blocks port 80. Can i use any other ports.
The server is a free server from analogx.com. I have a site all set up but users always get a page cannot be display message. I tried port 8080 and 8181. Any other ports to try?

They block port 80 for a simple reason. They don't want you to set up a web server.

Thank you very much. My DSL isp told me they blocked it because of a virus that came out last summer. Boy I got pissed so I just hooked up my cable modem. uninstalled the DSL modem and my site works fine. I also use no-ip.com services to make my dynamic ip a static ip. My site is up. I'll be in the critique area to get a review now.
