I've been trying to run Apache which I downloaded from http://www.wampserver.com/en/.
The PHP command works fine in the command Window but I did see a
thread, on their forum, about Apache not starting. The forum
moderator said that could be because stuff like zonealarm, and
firewall/antivirus may cause a conflict. I have them running on my PC
but I don't want to turn them off and make my PC vulnerable to
hackers. Should I use a different version of Apache? Should I use
WAMP at all?

Thanks,
Peter.
