I'm trying to run an Apache server on my windows machine, however, I have to run it on a different port, I'd like to run it on port 80, that way it's on my localhost. When I type localhost into my browser address bar, I'm sent to the IIS server home page. I have an IIS server installed that I've been unable to delete, so I simply stopped and disable the service in services.msc, but it seems to still be running. How do I find and stop the unwanted services running on port 80 and how do I permanently delete the IIS server from my machine?

On newer versions of Windows (Win2003 and later), you can use:
netstat -b -o
On older versions of Windows (XP and earlier), I'd recommend using fport:

Either one will show you the process ID and filename. The process ID should be enough to kill the process; the filename should help you track down the offending process. You can use Process Explorer if you also need the pathname based on the process ID.
