Vista & xampp lite 1.70 - can't get started

[Izzy]

I'm willing to give this fix a shot, but I'm curious-- in layman's terms, what does it do, and what sort of side effects might come about due to that change?

::1 localhost = IPv6 for localhost which XAMPP can't use.

127.0.0.1 localhost = IPv4 for localhost which XAMPP can use.

The side effects of commenting out or deleting the IPv6 entry are that you will be able to access XAMPP using http://localhost and http://127.0.0.1

Sounds good. I'm not gonna disrupt my wireless or anything else by making the change?

It won't disrupt your wireless or you TV.
