Roedy I don't understand what the question is. Is it simply what port
to use? Don't use port 80 unless you're connecting to http servers.
Even if you write your own app on port 80, that doesn't mean that
Windows firewall won't block your application. A hardware firewall
obviously won't know the difference, but most hardware firewalls built
into NAT routers don't block outgoing requests anyway...
BitTorrent is different because it is a client and server rolled into
one.
