Apache *is* a web server. Nothing to fix here. You need it to be a web
server to be able to develop against it. If you don't want it to be
*ACCESSIBLE* from the web, firewall it.

You should probably download the version of PHP that has the installer:
http://www.php.net/get/php-5.0.4-installer.exe/from/a/mirror
It will install and configure PHP for you.
