Ok, no problem. I just wanted to check if I got something backwards. Just to clarify; the fact that he can browse the internet does not mean that he has port 80 open to the world. Just that the server he browses to does. As a client you will negotiate with the server about a port with a high number to do the acctual tcp communication over. Port 80 is just the servers listening port for new connections. In Ardit's case there is also a router between the client and the server in the port negotiation.
Atleast, that's what I remember from my network communications class at the university. But I'm not saying I'm 100% right. I haven't verified it.
