Do you have to load/install/start a service to run the localhost on a Pro
machine?  I can't figure it out, (or is it already running by default)?

I run Win2k Pro and have forty or so web sites on it which I test and

I don't mess around changing the root directory, just loading
http://localhost/morris or whatever.
