Using @Home?
Authored by: sharumpe on Sep 04, '01 03:27:44PM

If you're on @Home's network, they're now (As of a few weeks ago) blocking port 80 to outside traffic. You can get the site, others on @Home may be able to, but no one outside @Home's network can do so. This is because of the CodeRed worm, they say.

Oh well, the user agreement said it was not allowed (I had one for a while, too). The guy I talked to told me that it was "illegal" to host a server on my connection. After a bit of time trying to explain the distinction between "not allowed" and "illegal", I gave up and moved my server.
