Stealth Ports 80 and 443

Hi there,

 

Does anybody know how to stealth these ports?  I've just done a Shields Up test and ports 80 and 443 are both open.  I know that port 80 is essential for http traffic and it's also used by the svchost/services.exe (I think) but how do I stealth it?  Also, the ports ar only open when I connect directly to my modem.  If I'm connected to my router, which has Network Address Translation (NAT), the ports are stealthed.

 

Any helped with this would be greatly appreciated.
