This sounds like rubbish to me.
I wish people would do a simple test before making statements
like this.
Am I *still* the only one here who knows how to test properly?
$ nc -vv login.icq.com 8000
login.login-grt.messaging.aol.com [64.12.161.185] 8000 (?) open : Operation now
in progress
*?$+ ? ? sent 0, rcvd 10
That was done from a UAE DSL box and shows that port 8000
is open. Modem dialups, ISDN, etc. might be different, but I doubt it.
You might need to do it with telnet (if you don't have netcat):
telnet login.icq.com 8000
If you get the garbage characters at the end, as above, port
8000 is *not* blocked.
