To be more specific, in any IPv4 TCP/IP stack, the whole class-A subnet 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 is your PC.

So, in this instance, you have a program running locally that is binding itself to the same port that homer wants to bind to.

The above program will help you track down what program is listening on the port you're trying to use for homer.


Hope that helps!
