Have you tried Tetrinet?  I've found this to be a pretty good battle Tetris 
clone, and it allows up to six people to play.  Since it uses TCP/IP, you can 
play it through the internet.  Though the author requests a donation of $10, 
the program is freeware and is fully functional with no time limit.  I've 
played this through my LAN and it's a blast, especially if you use special 
blocks.  I don't have the web site, but a search for TETRINET will give you 
results.

Another one that I'm not familiar with is called T2NET, similar to Tetrinet.  
It supports algorithms, meaning you face the computer and play, but it has 
multiplayer support.  It's also free, and the web site is
