Something's fishy going on: dead server & no log messages

I have an interesting problem. First, my Cygwin binary distribution of Apache 1.3.22, ater 5 years has STOPPED RESPONDING. No errors to log and No Web Service.

This all started by my computer get infecting by 2 Trojan Horses viruses. The OS disk partition was copied and a virus scanner was executed on the copy to clean it out. A decision was made to avoid a lot of wait time by letting my son download from MS a copy of Windows XP Pro,that included all changes up to SP3. Using this MS download CD, most everything was restored to service with the exception of Apache. It acts like it has not ever been started except for the normal error_log messages present with start/stop.

QUESTION:
I know this is going to be a strange request: Has anyone had a experience with the OS download possibly blocking port 80. The OS download was a special subscription service from MS. Since I have my own hardware firewall, the Windows Firewall is turned off as well as ICS. My son, the MS experience, is quite suspicious of Apache and/or Cygwin but is offering little help at this time. In fact he wanted me to briefly upgrade to MS IIS!!! (no way) I'm running on Cygwin 1.7 and Apache has worked flawlessly for about 5 years as well as Apache 1.3 22. I firmly believe: If it's working, don't touch it. Well I touched it. I upgraded to Apache 1.3.41 binary distribution. The results EXACTLY the same: dead to.
