I am having trouble viewing my html files using my PC as a server.

It appears to be set up correctly and my firewall has been turner off but when I point my browser to http://80.1.224.5 all I get is:-

Connection refused
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Description: Connection refused
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I try a different port then I get the standard 'This Page Cannot be Displayed' message.

I have a feeling that my ISP provider (NTL cable) have blocked incoming traffic, could this be the case? Is there a way around this?

Fixed it myself.

I was using an IP address that a web site reported to be mine however when I went into 'Network Connections' the one shown was different.

When I used the correct address it all worked perfectly!
