113 can be stealthed by closing it on the external
services access page (this may make IRC logins and
other IDENT things take a bit longer.

80 is not open on SW by default, however I suspect
that a modem or ISP device may be the problem. The
modem i use (Dlink dsl300g) has a web interface on
port 80. Even when it is turned off for the internet,
the modem still intercepts port 80. see

work on any modem with a telnet interface running
"Titanium"
