Bart, in your XAMPP Control Panel there is a button
Port Check - give that a click.
Or if the Port Check won't work, click on the
Shell button and at the
# prompt type exactly this:
netstat -a -n -o -p TCPIt should tell you the process that is using port 80 and 443, and other ports - see below for finding what process is using the ports by checking the PID (
Process ID) in the
Processes tab of the
Task Manager.

IIS would usually be intserv.exe (
internet server or Internet Information Server - IIS) so look in the
Task Manager if it is running by right clicking on the
TaskBar and select
Task Manager from the menu then
Processes tab and look for
intserv.exe and if you find it then you will have to disable it in your Windows Control Panel.
BTW Skype can be configured not to use port 80 and 443 so you have the best of both worlds - Skype and your web server.
Good luck.
