Dear Apache Friends,
I am just getting started with xampp (using a local server to develop some jQuery skills), and have managed to install xampp and run it with administrative privileges, but so far have not been able to start Apache. Here is what I see as it attempts to start:
The check boxes on the left of the Apache, MySQL, FileZilla and Tomcat modules are filled with a red X, and the box next to the Mercury module is empty.
The main logs window reads:

The line reading "server certificate does NOT include an ID which matches the server name" seems to point at the main problem, but I haven't been able to find any info which would resolve that. I would greatly appreciate some suggestions as to what steps I might try next.
Thank you for any help you can provide,

P.A. I have read the other posts in this board which point to conflicts with Skype using port 80, but I do not have Skype installed on my machine.
