[users@httpd] HTTP problems after uninstalling Apache on Windows 2000

Hi,

I am experiencing some strange problems after uninstalling Apache on 
Windows 2000.

My configuration is as follows :

- 1 Pentium II PC with Win2000, connected to the internet, sharing 
internet connection (via WinRoute performing NAT) with :
- 1 Macintosh G3 with MacOS X 10.2

This configuration worked really fine (both machines had access to the 
web), until I installed Apache on Windows 2000 and tried to uninstall 
it.

When I uninstalled Apache from the PC, the Mac couldn't load HTTP pages 
anymore. BUT all the non-HTTP requests continued to work very well 
(https, ping, etc.) Just the browser is not able to load HTTP pages 
anymore (it keeps on trying to access the webserver on the PC, I don't 
know why).

Here are the only few clues I have :

- I think the problem comes from the PC running Win2000
- I don't think it is a DNS-related problem, because non-http queries 
still work fine
- The browser on the Mac keeps on trying to access the PC, which does 
not respond to HTTP queries
- I re-installed Apache on Win2000, and when trying to browse the 
Internet from the Mac, I only got the default Apache webserver page 
from the PC instead of any website

Please help ! What should I do ?

Thanks a lot

Damien

(I think there has been a problem with the posting of my reply  
yesterday, so here it is again)

I thought of the proxy too, but I have verified and there is no proxy  
set for any of the machines...
Thanks James

Could it be that you set the HTTP proxy for the Mac to be your Win2000
server?  That would seem to tally with the behaviour you're experiencing
(Mac connects to Win2000 server on port 80, sends "GET
http://httpd.apache.org/ HTTP/1.0", Apache on Win2000 server responds with
its default page).

HTH,
