Can someone help me?

I've been trying to configure php and Apache 1.3.27 on my Windows XP.
I'm only using the server for myself to learn php. I tried to follow
what it says in the install.txt file on php, so I already have the
LoadModule, AddModule, and AddType directives typed into the
httpb.conf file. I also changed the php.ini file like it said in
install.txt.

The server works, but every php file I try to test out makes a
download prompt come up. (I type in [url]http://localhost/hello.php[/url] and it
tries to download the file instead of just opening it in IE.) It
works for homemade html files though, so I think that php just isn't
melding with apache, but I don't know why. Any help would be
appreciated.

did you remember to restart the apache server after changing the configuration? =)

Actually, I found the problem, just a horrible mistype. It was
because I had a # sign in front of the stuff I was supposed to add to
the httpd.conf file. Thanks for your efforts anyways though.

Ok well.... last week I got a few virus's, so I downloaded a few virus programs
to get ride of them. I also deleted TEMP INTERNET FILES, and COOKIE. I think I
also deleted some java applets thinking they were the virus, and one of them
was my macromedia flash player. Now I just got rid of all the virus's the other
night, but now my internet/mac player never refreshes it self. I am in a yahoo
fantasy baseball league, that is what I use the flash player for. But now
everytime I go to load it up, it ask's me to download it, so I did, and again
and agin more like 15 times. Everytime I try and load it up it ask's me to
download it, or bypass it. When I bypass it, it loads up like it should, but
then my stattracker is waaaayyy behind more like 3 dayz behind. This is also
happening to my stat page as well, I always now have to hit refresh, but in my
macromedia stattracker I can't hit refresh, cause there is none. This is really
pissing me off. BTW, I don't have a copy of windows, so the OS I have on my
comp is the only thing I have to work with. Does anyone have any clues?
