[dba-Tech] Port 80

That part I did understand but barring the obvious there must be something else blocking things.

You misunderstand Arthur's problem.

While lots of applications can send on a port, only one application can hook a 
port and listen on it at a time.  

He wants to set up something to listen on Port 80 but another program has already grabbed it 
and is listening for income traffic.  He is trying to find out what that program is.
