Double Check to ensure that your HTTP server software is configured and running
properly. If you‟re running any firewall software, make sure it‟s allowing inbound
connections to port 80,Also, if you happen to be using a cable/DSL router, make sure
you‟ve set up port forwarding properly. ( consult your router‟s documentation for more
information ) .If none of these seem to be the problem, it‟s also possible that your
ISP is blocking inbound connections to port 80 –many IPSs have done this because
of internet worms such as Code Red, If this is the case, you „ll have to setup your
HTTP server on an alternate port (such as 8080).
