Something on my computer is binding to port 80. Short of manually turning on and off every process on my computer, how do I find out what process is binding to what port? (Windows XP, SP1)\r\n\r\n

Update: Thanks for your responses (mainly via MSN). It turns out it was Skype, the pesky thing, but at least it wasn't some sinister spyware. Thanks to Steve (he's a fan of uber-minimalist web design) for the pointer to the thoroughly useful TCPview, which was exactly the tool for the job. SysInternals seem to do a lot of other useful stuff, too.\r\n\r\n

I love my blog. I could've gone looking for that answer, or just sat here until somebody popped along and answered it for me.","updated",["D",1122308097000],"created",["D",1122308097000],"codename","very_geeky_question","legacy_id","3293","thumbnailUrl","published",["D",1122308097000],"draft",false,{"_10":32,"_12":33,"_14":34,"_16":35,"_18":36,"_20":37,"_22":38,"_24":39,"_26":-5,"_27":40,"_29":30},1148,"Dumb things I've seen today: a virtual server, minimized into a corner of my screen, running a...","A virtual server running a screen saver.
