-    <p>Note that you cannot install two versions of Apache 2.5 on the
-    same computer with the binary installer. You can, however, install
-    a version of the 1.3 series <strong>and</strong> a version of the

-
-    <p>Run the Apache <code>.msi</code> file you downloaded above. The
-    installation will ask you for these things:</p>
-
-    <ol>
-      <li><p><strong>Network Domain.</strong> Enter the DNS domain in which
-      your server is or will be registered in. For example, if your
-      server's full DNS name is <code>server.example.net</code>, you would
-      type <code>example.net</code> here.</p></li>
-
-      <li><p><strong>Server Name.</strong> Your server's full DNS name.
-      From the example above, you would type <code>server.example.net</code>
-      here.</p></li>
-
-      <li><p><strong>Administrator's Email Address.</strong> Enter the
-      server administrator's or webmaster's email address here. This
-      address will be displayed along with error messages to the client
-      by default.</p></li>
-
-      <li><p><strong>For whom to install Apache</strong> Select <code>for
-      All Users, on Port 80, as a Service - Recommended</code> if you'd
-      like your new Apache to listen at port 80 for incoming traffic.
-      It will run as a service (that is, Apache will run even if no one
-      is logged in on the server at the moment) Select <code>only for
-      the Current User, on Port 8080, when started Manually</code> if
-      you'd like to install Apache for your personal experimenting or
-      if you already have another WWW server running on port 80.</p></li>
-
-      <li><p><strong>The installation type.</strong> Select <code>Typical</code>
-      for everything except the source code and libraries for module
-      development. With <code>Custom</code> you can specify what to
-      install. A full install will require about 13 megabytes of free
-      disk space. This does <em>not</em> include the size of your web
-      site(s).</p></li>
-
-      <li><p><strong>Where to install.</strong> The default path is
-      <code>C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation</code>
-      under which a directory called
-      <code>Apache2.3</code> will be created by default.</p></li>
-    </ol>
-
-    <p>During the installation, Apache will configure the files in the
-    <code>conf</code> subdirectory to reflect the chosen installation
-    directory. However, if any of the configuration files in this
-    directory already exist, they will not be overwritten. Instead, the
-    new copy of the corresponding file will be left with the extension
-    <code>.default</code>. So, for example, if <code>conf\httpd.conf</code>
-    already exists, it will be renamed as <code>conf\httpd.conf.default</code>.
-    After the installation you should manually check to see what new
-    settings are in the <code>.default</code> file, and if necessary,
-    update your existing configuration file.</p>
-
-    <p>Also, if you already have a file called <code>htdocs\index.html</code>,
-    it will not be overwritten (and no <code>index.html.default</code>
-    will be installed either). This means it should be safe to install
-    Apache over an existing installation, although you would have to
-    stop the existing running server before doing the installation, and
-    then start the new one after the installation is finished.</p>
-
-    <p>After installing Apache, you must edit the configuration files
-    in the <code>conf</code> subdirectory as required. These files
-    will be configured during the installation so that Apache is ready
-    to be run from the directory it was installed into, with the
-    documents server from the subdirectory <code>htdocs</code>. There
-    are lots of other options which you should set before you really
-    start using Apache. However, to get started quickly, the files
-    should work as installed.</p>

-    <p>One feature of the installer, "Build Headers and Libraries", can be
