Port 80 is pretty much a standard comm port. Probably some problem on the other end, server-side or connections between your ISP to the multiplayers server. Try to connect in the next days.

You know, I am having the same problem and I have heard other people have this problem too. Is there some kind of magic trick to getting FSHost to work?  :-/

Modem? Router? Cable? Dialup?
Which firewall and Antivirus?

You aren't providing enough information to diagnose the problem ..... you say you are using FShost Server Software .... is that FSHost  FSHostSpy or FSHostClient (which is only for FSX)?

What exactly are you using FSHost for? You don't need it to connect to somone else's server all you need is the server IP. FSHost is for hosting your own session and the port80 error is generated because the port is closed.

Please go through the process which leads to the error.

It's probably something very simple but without all the info it isn't that simple.
