I second the VPN idea...it allowed me to use all ports with my cisco vpn
client :-)  Or if port blocking is a concern go to Qwest DSL.  I have
1.5Mbit/1.5Mbit service with a /29 network and now port blocking for about
$60/month.

The pserver port works fine incoming on my connection.

Yes, although I think I might qualify for Elkhorn instead ;)

Dude, VPN!  It's SOOO easy to get around Cox's filtering when all they 
see is IP proto 50...
