So I was just about to start up Apache locally at port 80, but...
Port 80 was in use. What could possible use port 80?
Netstat couldn't get any information on port 80, neither did some tool I downloaded (it just said 'System').
I've been using some web server, but no, that wasn't it.
I installed Node.js, but that wasn't using port 80.
What other software could possibly use my standard HTTP port...?
Turned out the culprit was SQL Server 
Why would SQL Server need port 80 and why is it being so secretive about it?

SSRS perhaps?

Just turned it off for now

Sander, I have to tell you that I'm deeply disappointed in you. You lied to me.
I visited your blog.
And you really don't write the code I need.

That's what you think...
Once you start reading you'll be thinking to yourself "How could I've lived my life without having this knowledge that is written in these blogs!?" 
Anyway, if you have a better idea for a tag line I'm open for suggestions.

That's a Bit rude. If you ask someone to Nibble[^] you, they might have a Word[^] with your manager.

Let me ASCII a question, do UCS bicker on like this for the rest of the day?
If not I say we cut this Short as this had been going on for far to Long!

I used to have Skype compete very rudely, i.e. steal the port, with Apache, but I've never seen SQL Server do it.

As many people point out - if it's alternative medicine it's not medicine.
Obligatory James Randi joke:
Did you hear the one about the man who overdosed on homeopathic medicine?
He forgot to take his pills.

As Tim Minchin said: "You know what they call alternative medicine that's been proved to work? Medicine."

Like alternative music isn't music? I think the point with alternative medicine is not an alternative to medicine, but an alternative to conventional medicine. This is not to say that homeopathy is a valid alternative though, while I, only personally, do grant other alternatives, like herbal medicine (especially certain herbs  ) some credence.

Another gem linked from the same page:
"Slicing off a bug's penis is bad for reproduction, study concludes"
Any fool can write code that a computer can understand. Good programmers write code that humans can understand.

I never sliced anything of a bug, so I should be able to reproduce just fine

Still funny to this day, and will probably be until the end of all homeopaths.

Thanks for posting. You don't have to read the blurb. Just the flow diagram makes it worthwhile!
