Re: http port open?? how can that be?
Already checked that. inetd.conf shows nothing about http
and I do not have a xinetd. Any other guesses?

just guessing...
inetd (or xinetd) may be listening to various ports whether you have
services to run on them or not. check your /etc/*inetd.conf setup
and /etc/init.d/*inetd reload after tweaking (if this is the problem)...
