Use netstat -aon
and look for the address ending in :80 and note the corresponding PID in the same row. Then go to task manager (CTRL-ALT-DEL), click Processes tab and under View click Select Columns then check PID (Process Identifier). The PID in Processes that matches PID from netstat -aon is listening on your port.
Skype, which is a very common app running in the background, is a common cause of port 80 being occupied.
