Problem:
I installed Miniwebsvr on a client of mine's computer and it works, but not without displaying an error at every system startup.
Repro:
(Windows XP Pro SP2 w/ Norton AntiVirus 2007 [14.2.0.29] Installed [I know I don't like Symantec either])
1. Start "C:\Program Files\MiniWebSvr\miniwebsvr.exe" -p 80
Result:
The following error dialog appears:
[Critical]
(x) bind() failed with error 10048
Comments:
I would assume that port 80 was in use, but then I wouldn't think miniwebsvr would be able to take that port over. The web server is working and I should note that there aren't any other web servers installed like IIS for example.

If you think the problem is in fact Norton AntiVirus, I am willing to mail you a copy of it. I should note however, that there are numerous other TCP using applications running on this system all which work without issue:
DynDNS Update Client
UltraVNC Server
Remote Desktop
TalkSwitch AutoUpdate Utility

Hmm, if port 80 is in use it will come up with that error message, and then QUIT.
So, if the miniwebsvr is running, I can only think that it might be run twice, so the first one succeeds and the second one fails.
