oops. I left out the all important 80 in the telnet request

open 127.0.0.1 80
GET /

sorry about that. the desired result is that you see a bunch of HTML code
come back

you have process ID 1292 listening on port 80, which is the same process as
for FTP so most likely inetinfo.exe - meaning IIS is bound to the port. try
the telnet thing again and we may be able to discount an IIS problem and
concentrate on the client (IE) instead. It doesn't seem like a security
issue to me so far. It seems to me more like a plain communications problem
between client and server. when was the last time you ran a spyware/virus
scan?
