If this happens to be just what's going on in this person's 
case (i.e., that ports numbered less than 1024 are blocked), then 
odds are you can configure the router to map a different, 
high-numbered port on the external IP to port 80 on the internal Web 
server.  (You can indeed do this in general -- I'm just not familiar 
with this particular variety of router.)
