Kazik,

As Chris said try nmapping from outside. (If you think you are ready
publish, your IP name/address here and some of us will probably try and
hit you. Of course if your on the net already you have probably been
scanned many time already ;-)

A scanner detecting a port as in stealth simply means that it never got
a response on that port. (As opposed to open which means it received an
ACK and closed which means it got a RST). Of course if your link (or
sygate's) was congested when the scan was run it could be the scanner
didn't get a response in time and moved on to the next port. 

If you turn up the logging level on your iptables firewall you can of
course see the incoming hits and verify that your firewall at least is
logging that it is doing what it is supposed to.

Run nmap from a remote box.

No idea about those sites though.
