To understand how, you need to brush up on 7-layer OSI-model. Most interesting are 1st being the medium (your phone line), 4th being the transport (TCP protocol), and 7th - application. Connecting to port 26000 (not 2600) and succeeding at it means that there is no L4 filtering in your way (IP firewalls), however when you start transmitting data on this freshly-established connection, L7 filters come into play, that look at what you send and receive over the connection and make decisions based on this traffic.

Glad to be of help. If you need help in solving the problem without involving your ISP, while involving some ISK, drop me a line in-game :)

Well, I offered you a way to play eve without paying $150, but it's your choice - while I am all in for changing ISPs in case of such practices, paying them money for this doesn't go along with my beliefs :)
Why would you need to pay $150? Does the line belong to ISP?

Here in Poland there is only one ISP that owns telephone cables mostly everywhere in the country. Thanks to this we have quite well developed wireless ISPs, with me working for one myself :) - maybe this is something worth looking into guys?

Oh, but there's no need for instructions in eve-mail. You can just follow http://eve.75.pl/tunnel.php and use classic mail to send me your public key.

Unless opening websites via IGB is done with another connection to eve servers (doesn't seem like a smart thing to do), these are obtained directly from your machine, not via my tunnel - so encryption or lack of it is therefore irrelevant in such case.
There is only one connection forwarded, and that is from eve client to eve server. Opening webpages, p2p traffic and everything else is unaffected. This connection is encrypted using similar (or even identical) encryption as the ssh tunnel. You guys really believe in breaking such encryption, yet still happily use Internet banking and other services. Go figure ;)
Maybe with all this fuss around the case some nice dev could please shed some light on this? I really don't want people to be scared that I can do something not nice to their accounts while helping them and my wallet :)
