worked - it said port 80 is closed, but how can i tell if there is something on my 
computer closed it or if the ISP closes it?  Maybe a program that will tell me it has 
recieved requests or packets on that port, something that runs on my machine.  I know 
there are programs like that , I just am not familiar with the name or usage, so would 
appreciate a tip on it.  THank you for your response though - at least I know that i 
didnt "mess up" with apache, esp since I can access my page on port 8000!
