Trying to get apache to work on alt port instead of 80 out of necessity

My problem is that Verizon, my residential dsl provider graciously blocks my
incoming http port. So I can't access my web server from outside my lan
through the default port. So, what I'm doing, is opening up port 8008
instead as my access to my web server. I've changed my
/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file in the "listen" section from 80 to 8008. But
this still doesn't fix the problem.

Also, windows IIS works fine from outside my lan. Why doesn't apache?????

I have a Di-614+ router. I have the correct virtual server port open (8008)
to the correct ip address.
http://ip.add.re.ss:8008 should open my apache web server, but it only works
for http://localhost:8008.

Stumped....
