    What operating system are you running? Linux? Solaris? Windows?

    Linux
    The apache web server is probably already installed (and enabled).

    Windows
    Goto the apache website and download the latest stable apache binary release package. Installation is pretty simple. And you can always ask questions here if you get stuck.

    Solaris
    At home? I want one too. ;-)

      FYI, if you happen to be running Apple's OS X, which is BSD under the hood, apache comes with it, installed. It's just not turned on by default, which is a good thing.

        I am not running OS X so I don't have a clue why apache on OS X is not a good thing? Security concerns?
