You can setup SSH tunnel thru the port 80, if the remote server allows you to do so.

I have the same problem - it's not the host that's the issue, it's the local network security. VPN intercepts all traffic on all ports except 80. Any ideas on how to work in that environment?

Okay, because I can't connect to my web host, and the support tells me that I should change to passive mode, and then it would work.

"Passive mode" is term from FTP protocol. It has no meaning for SFTP/SCP. But the way SFTP/SCP works resembles more passive mode of FTP then the active mode.
