What do you mean its blocking the *****? As in its slowing it down or actually blocking it? If its slowing it down, then you don't need to open the ports, for if they werent open it wouldnt work at all. You might need to add a Gamefuel to override a incorrect classification of the VOIP traffic. Application rules and gaming rules is if its working intermittently or not at all. But that could be caused by other things too. What do  the logs say?

You have open ports all the time. 80 is open to view this very page. Opening ports aren't a security risk. Its just people who open ALL their ports to all traffic, to all IP's on the net..then that starts being a issue. 443 is for DNS. So it looks like your router is blocking a DNS relay. You may want to turn it off and enter in your DNS manually. Or set up a forwarding rule

443 is for DNS

5000 is for UPnP

5010 is for Yahoo Voice chat

But if you notice, its from a private IP to a private IP. So its being blocked at your WAN. You shouldnt have to forward those ports. I mean if you had to forward the port for UPnP, that would be totally against the point. LOL. Do you have a second router? Or using DSL?
