I am looking for a small piece of software that will keep my internet connection active, which meets the following criteria:

1) It must run as a service
2) It must use a standard port, such as 25 or 80
3) It must be free or inexpensive.

My internet provider closes all incoming traffic after a set period of inactivity.

I dont know of a keep alive program that runs as a service, but how about using a freeware program called NT Runner to allow you to run any executable as a service. You could then load a keep alive program with it. You can get that here. http://www.istare.com/software/ntrunner/ . Now if that doesn't work, how about running scheduler and then having ping run every 4.9 minutes and ping your isp?

Hope this helps.
