Kids

Maybe your ISP is blocking port 80 requests?

quite possibly, especially if you've gotten enough traffic for them to notice.

This on a private line or a business line?

If its a private residential line then yes its quite possible.
They do NOT like you running servers on a residential line

Check your EULA

It usually states that you are not allowed to run a server of any kind. They only have so much bandwidth and if too many people are running high traffic servers, then no one is happy.

If you don't mind telling me, what's your website? I'll see from here which ports are open.

Which router exactly do you have? If it has a setting for SPI, and you have that enabled, it will block all ports regardless of any port forwarding settings you have.

The other thing you could try is to set your webserver as the DMZ host. That way it'll be outside the firewall and you'll know for sure if it's your router or your ISP blocking the ports. If you set it as the DMZ host and then you can reach it, you have a router setting issue. If you can't reach it when it's the DMZ host, you're probably getting blocked by your ISP.
