I thought about that too, but I've shut down the only thing (4D 
Portal) that would be competing. For giggles just now, I tried 
telnetting to port 80 and port 8080. With port 80, two out of three 
times, the connection was closed by the foreign host almost 
instantly, whereas Swiki on port 8080 hung onto it longer before 
closing. They looked the same, though there was no identification of 
what process was actually doing the answering.
