Most modern games have some info for use with firewalls / NAT's about,
ones I know work are:
Quake, Quakeworld, Quake2, Quake3, Half-Life, anything else based on the
q/q2/q3 engine. There was some work done on BattleZone a while back and I
think a proxy or something was written. Some thing simlar for starcraft
was being talked of as well. You will have to look though tht e archives
for mor info on this

As a technical note the quake proxy is there so that multiple clients can
join the same server, quake1/2/3 work fine without the proxy for a single
client in ot out or mulitple to different servers.
