I have skype installed. I do not windows XP professional so IIS cannot be running...but thanks for the hint, I will try to use 8080 and see what happens.
EDIT: my doubt is, why a chat application wants to use port allocated to Web servers?
Assuming you are running a router on your network (to share your network for example). You will need to forward the needed ports to the system running apache... It would also allow you to use port 80 for the outside world, but have the router forward the traffic to apache at port 8080.
ps. If something on your system is already listening on port 80, and you dont know what could be, I STRONGLY suggest you run some anti spyware/virus software scans on your system to ensure you are clean. No software should need to bind to port 80 unless it's a web server, or you otherwise know about it...
also try 'netstat -a -n' from command prompt to see all the socket stuff listening on your system.

EDIT: When I typed in the IP, it goes to google but what is the google doing with port 80?
EDIT: I have uninstalled a google player, but I come to understand that the recipient port was 80 at google but it was using another port in my system.
ftp is a bit harder because 'ftp is broken by design (tm)'.
Whenever someone connects to an ftp server (typically port 21) your ftp server will reply. When that person requests data, your ftpd will open a connection (originating port 20) to that person... When users start a 'passive' ftp session both commands and data will be send through the same connection... Or make them use something better like scp (winscp and filezilla are nice clients for win32).
I have installed filezilla, I have created an account dev with password, but when I first try to connect using ftp://127.0.0.1 using the above account and password but is says that it is not able to find home directory. I know I have not still configured where to get the files from.
1. timvw, can you tell me how to point the ftp server where to get the files from or the ftp server always directly connects from the root itself like Desktop in Windows???
2. my second question is how to let the filezilla to accept connections from public ip say, 82.x.x.x on port 21?

With the FileZilla server management tool you connect to your server..
Choose Edit, Groups in the menu (i prefer to configure rights for a group, afterwards i add users to that group).
In the Shared Folders you can choose the folders (and an eventual alias).
There is also a button button "Set as home dir" that allows you choose a selected folder as homedir.

Via Edit->Settings in the General settings there is an option IP Filter which allows you to disallow/grant connections..
(I don't remember if there was a good manual.. I do remember that it took a while to get it right.. but that was because i forgot that windows firewall was instructed to block all connections.. )
I have created a group and allowed access to few directories on my local system and created a new user who was made to belong this group so the user can now access the directories allowed to access through group configuration. Thanks for that help
my second question was not so specific...I actually meant the following
I have a local ip: 192.168.0.101 and a public ip: 81.x.x.x
thus if some one wants to access my system through ftp, then they should be able to access through ftp://81.x.x.x
and this does not happen now
I hope that you could now understand what my problem is.
Afaik FileZilla Server will bind to all interfaces (* / 0.0.0.0) by default.. What does netstat -an say for port 21?
You still have to configure your router to redirect requests to your (internal) pc...
If users configure their ftp client to make a 'passive' connection this should work...
Check if your ISP blocks some ports (Eg: overhere we had a couple of isps that used to block all ports < 1024)
