    Winsock and Port 80

    this is sooooo stupid, I know, but how do I get winsock to listen to port 80? In my formload, I have:
    Winsock1.LocalPort = 80
    Winsock1.Listen

    But when I run this, I get an error: "Address in Use"

    I have nothing running , how do I get around this?

    Should I be able to listen to port 80 without any problems? I did a scan and I have no viruses.

    Run netstat and see what is using the port.

    Are you running a web server? Do you have Win2K with IIS installed?

    Also, do you have a firewall that would prevent you from opening up a port?

    Get these: Mozilla Opera OpenBSD
    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.
