Kill or remove a port used by a process.

[Richard (Tor)]

Hi,

When I started my Tomcat in XP, it failed because it complained port
80 was already being used. I did a netstat -a and found that port 80
was used by UDP but I did not know which process was using it and why?

Is there a way to find out which program or process is using that port
and subsequently kill it because it should not be there?

Please email to (e-mail address removed)

Thanks in advance
Richard

Hi Richard,

Port 80 is generally used for accessing web pages.
