Disable the world wide web publishing service.

But if you don't want it why not remove it via add/remove programs > windows components

When I was born I was so suprised I didn't talk for 18 months

hhhmmmm i had a look at it doesn't seem to appear in that list!

i want to keep it, just disable it while i run a program locally.

Thanx for the advice though
