By "incoming traffic" I (and I guess most of people) understand traffic that
comes to your machine, not traffic thatgoes to port 80 somewhere in the
world.

by "outgoing traffic" I (see above) understand traffic that goes out to the
world.

If you call packets coming to your machine (router) with destiny in the
outside world an incoming traffic, then you should learn about stateful
firewalling, that will help you to configure firewalls properly and
avoid confusion and problems you have described.
