This should make sure everything is set back to the defaults. The
first one should be enough. If you still can't listen on ports 21 or
80 then try the second one.

NOTE: for anyone else following this. Following these directions
will break any software that modifies the winsock settings. This can
include antivirus, firewalls, antispyware, spam filters, and more.
If you do not know exactly what you are doing do not use the above
commands. You may have to reinstall some programs if you do.
