| Im running apache on windows 7. My windows firewall is down i have no security up. Everything works perfectly, just every so often my server is unaccessible through my external ip nor through my domain name. But if i enter my internal ip or locahost its fine so i know its not my server i was wondering if this could be caused by a ddos attack or what? Any help is appreciated thanks! |

| I played around with it and changed it so apache listened on port 8080 and typed in my external ip following :8080 and it worked then i changed it back to port 80 and everything is working fine again so i dont know if comcast blocks port 80 for some reason but its not always blocked... |

| Im not running any of those applications and i did netstat to check port 80 and the only thing running on port 80 is apache and its listening on it...i dont know why its unaccessable externally...and the apache logs show nothing =/ |
