To start with, you don't need to block out that IP. It is a local IP. It only means something to a person connected to your router. If that says 192.1.1.130 and I ping it, I will not be pinging you but likely pinging my own router.

Secondly I don't know if it will help but routers usually like a range of ports as opposed to giving the same port for the first and last. I know my linksys wont let you enter say 4878-4878. It forces you to do something like 4777-4879. Also you need to make sure that in that box at the bottom you entered the correct computer IP. Easiest way to do that follows:

Go Start > Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt

type in ipconfig

It should show some information and we are looking for one specific peice. Where it says IP Address . . . : 192.X.X.X

As an example mine is 192.168.1.104. If I wanted to forward to this computer I would enter that in the 4 boxes on your router prompt.

Those are really the only things I can think of that are neccesary for port forwarding. If you double check that stuff and it's not working then something more sinister may be going on here.
