01. You can switch to a different ISP like
Comcast or some other company.

02. You can also check to see if
other ports are open if they
do block the default port 80.

NTL's reliable now, and they don't block any ports. You're also allowed to run a server that receives an acceptable amount of traffic (they don't say how much is acceptable through)

Check your ISPs help pages and see whether it mentions port blocking. Who are you using ?

No-IP offers Port 80 redirect.
