I recall having seen port 443 SSL vulnerability probes...perhaps https 
is open? Try setting your machine up for SSL/https...if that works 
locally, maybe someone can see it from outside. But...word of 
caution...make sure php and OpenSSL are fully up to date. Also, I think 
the TOS says that if they find you are violating their TOS via some use 
they think is beyond your payment schedule, they will charge you for the 
time not paid when they locate the "excess" use.
