No that is not the case. It is used just as web browser page. They can't even browse the page on port 80. Like I said, 443 is working fine.

I am assuming they are opening the website as a web folder to make this work
(IE-File, open, type in URL, check the box 'Open as a Web Folder'. If so,
it's possible that UDP 1023 and above needs to be opened. SSL doesn't
require UDP >1023.

FTP works alot better. :-)

Having difficulty reading or finding responses to your post?
Instead of the website you're using, I suggest to use OEx (Outlook Express
or any other newsreader), and configure a news account, pointing to
news.microsoft.com. This is a direct link to the Microsoft Public
Newsgroups. It is FREE and requires NO ISP's Usenet account. OEx allows you
to easily find, track threads, cross-post, sort by date, poster's name,
watched threads or subject.
It's easy:
