Wow, you're right. I also can't ping, is that being blocked as well (I
honestly don't know how ping even works, is that through a specific port?)?
Anyway, this is so dumb, why would they block 80 and not block my SMTP
server? I would think that's more potentially damaging.

Is there any way around this without paying for hosting, or do I have to
just deal with my ISP?

Thanks,
Kevin Grigorenko
