prime-net: error 1, firewall related?



I've had the GIMPS prime-net package installed on my system here, it
appears that it's been unable to communicate with the central server
since I set up a firewall last summer.  On connecting to the GIMPS
server, I get, e.g.: 

    Accept the answers above? (Y):
    Contacting PrimeNet Server.
    ERROR: Primenet error 1
    The FAQ at http://www.entropia.com/ips/faq.html may have more
    information.

The FAQ, naturally, has no useful information, suggesting I've got a DLL
problem (hmmm...).  I've no idea what port(s) are being used for this
transfer.  Or if it's the firewall, but it seems like a good bet.  Any
ideas?
