Windows 2003 Firewall with TFS and port 8080 Exception

Anybody ever have this problem? When I try to connect to my TFS server from my VS Team Suite (VSTS), it states that I cannot connect.

I turn temporarily off the Windows 2003 firewall and try it again - with success! I turn the firewall back on and VSTS continues to communicate just fine with TFS over the exception port of 8080.

When I installed TFS, it automatically created the Firewall Exception for TCP port 8080 but it seems the server discovery process for VSTS needs some other port initially.

What am I missing?

Any tips are greatly appreciated.
