Hello!
> I found that port 80 is being used by both task "System" by user
"SYSTEM" for "NT Kernel and System"
with a PID of 4 and also for task "System Idle Process" by user "SYSTEM"
for
"Percentage of time the processor is idle" with a PID of 0.
This is typically the Web Deployment Agent Service (MsDepSvc) (this often
uses PID4) or Host Network Service - both stoppable from from services.msc
Let us know how you get on!
