Thanks for the help. Skype was the problem. Exiting the skype system tray icon cured it and uniserver now works nicely. All I need to do now is to put skype elsewhere while I get into apache config for my development sites.

Uniserver 5.3 installed in C:\UniServer\ Windows XP Using UniTray, the Apache server will not start. (MySQL does). Using the server status utility (attached pic) the essence is: "Apache Port = 80 In use by another program" I have run netstat and and nothing is using Port 80. I have tried using the normal and service options. No other versions of apache are running A restart of XP and running immediately after the restart makes no difference I have not tried using the "increment port number" utility because: - I don't know how to set it back again later - why should I when port 80 should have been free Help - any ideas?
