I have installed xampp control panel and Apache 2.2 on windows XP when I type http://localhost/ gives me page which says It Works!

Now, I want to change the port number 80 to some other number

How to change it ? in how many files does it needs to be changed ? dose it require to restart the system to change to take effect ?

Note: I have changed port number in C:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf

in two places where it says

Listen 80

and

ServerName localhost:80

Pls help, thanks.
