A. These are *outgoing* services and are usually not blocked by the firewall. If you are behind a firewall, you will need to have port 80 unblocked for the IP address of your personal web server. A firewall will block Name-Keeper from determining your real IP address. So whenever you RECONNECT to the Internet, you will have to use the Optional reconnection IP address input box and enter your IP address manually.
