If you really have to stay with windoze, remove and re-install
apache. Look at the system log files as they SHOULD tell you what

Hey Wolf,
Thanks for replying.
Would love to install Linux, problem is... dont know the first thing
about it if things go wrong, I always wanted to learn what its all
about but when I started to read up on it quickly got confused with
all the different flavors out there... which one is right for me/ a
total beginner? for every little thing I would probably have to join
a linux list and post.. what about drivers for the bits and pieces
of the laptop? what about software? most of the places I go to
download software (freeware or shareware) is only for Win..
Would love to switch away from Win... but i think the OS guys will
have to make it seem less of a mountain to climb to do so :(

One option, I don't know what your budget is, but Apple's Macintosh OS
X is basically a flavor of Unix (FreeBSD if I remember right) with a
nice user interface on it.
You have the ability to dive into the commandline when you need to/
want to, but have the comfortable point/click user interface when you
don't want to worry about it.
Just something else to think about... Oh... And there's no virii for
the Mac :)

Cant afford a new comp or a new OS and as for your last statement:

_almost_ no virii for the Mac :)
None that have effected my computers here at work, or at home. No anti-
virus, no firewall's ;)
Oh and I'll take 1 over 97,467 anyday :)
