I've uninstalled my WampServer 2.5 and installed version 3.0 But apache service isn't running and tray icon is orange... Clicking on test port 80 gave me the following cmd output :

***** Test which uses port 80 *****
===== Tested by command netstat filtered on port 80 =====
Test for TCP
Your port 80 is used by a processus with PID = 4
The processus of PID 4 is 'System' Session: Services
The service of PID 4 for 'System' is 'N/A'
*** ERROR *** This service IS NOT from Wampserver - Should be: 'wampapache'
Test for TCPv6

Press Enter to exit...

ISS Service has been disabled before and the Activation Windows service process too by the wampserver forum.

What is the problem then ??
