Apache 2.o.46 and Windows XP

Hi. I'm running an Apache2 webserver on a windows xp box on a network. I
want to be able to let internet users access it. So I went in to the setting
in my
internet connection and enabled the web server service. I've tried running
the webserver and it still can't be accessed from the internet. I then
turned off all firewalls and tried again. This still had no effect. I'm
unsure how to get this working. Could someone please help me out. I think it
has something to do with Internet Connection Sharing. But I also have this
enabled and I have port 80 set so it can be accessed from the web (and yes
the webserver is running on port 80).
Thanks.

Martin,

You might try another port. Some ISP's block 80.
