Richard When I logged in as root and issued the command it started working, the output was
Starting httpd: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using ::1 for ServerName
Since it is listning on port 80 am I safe from outside intrusions

When the command "service httpd start" is given the output is
Starting httpd: httpd: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using ::1 for ServerName (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80 (13)Permission denied: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down Unable to open logs [FAILED]
Is there or can be a service be running on port 80 and if it is how do I determine what it is and stop it.I am new to Fedora and Linux and I do not know the way around much

Does this mean that HTTP Server is already installed on my system and if it is How do I start it and Access it as local host
Yup, it's installed already. It won't do much out of the box but you can do the following:
To start the service: # service httpd start
To make it start on boot: # chkconfig httpd on
If you browse to localhost you should see the default apache page.
