Blind Apache - PHP not found

Hello, I've just installed Apache and PHP, and adapted the Apache httpd.conf file to include pointers to PHP. Apache works, says it triomphant in my localhost, but as soon as I try to read any .php file in MSIE 5.5 I get a 'file not found' (404). It goes even so far that an index.php is not found, and I get a directory listing instead. I see index.php in there, but when I click on it, MSIE persists that the file is not found... What could be wrong?! Any pointers to related web content ? I'm sure it's a beginners' problem, something simple I am missing...? Also, I can't shut Apache down. Ctrl-C or -k shutdown don't work. Once I've started Apache it stays active until I close Windows (98SE full). But the first problem is more urgent. How do I make PHP work? Please?
