Apache 2.0 on WinME as localhost - no listening sockets available error

I'm trying to install Apache 2.0 as a local server for development purposes.
I've run through the install process several times, fiddled around with the
port settings - used 80, 8080 and none but can't get it to work.

When I run it from the command line I get the following message:
[Tue Sep 21 17:50:16 2004] [crit] (OS 10038)Socket operation on non-socket:
make_sock: for address 0.0.0.0:80, apr_socket_opt_set: (SO_KEEPALIVE) no
listening sockets available, shutting down
Unable to open logs

I'm running Win ME, AVG anti-virus and McAfee Firewall.

Netstat gives me:

I've googled this to death but no viable solution has presented itself.

ANY help or suggestions, most gratefully accepted.
