You're welcome ;-)
Anyway, you shouldn't leave your firewall box in this state,
especially if you play quake often (a lot of people will see your IP address
and *will* try to crack your machine).
You should restrict the open udp ports to the only ones you actually need.
The best way to do this is to close everything, activate the logging of
rejected packets, and watch the logs just after you try to get a list of
servers with quake. You should see the rejected packets in the logs, with the
port(s) used.
In the future, with kernel 2.4, we should be able to allow this kind of thing
in a dynamic way, thus not leaving open ports uselessly.
