Can't start MySQL, port 3306 busy

I'm trying to start MySQL from XAMPP (under Windows Vista), but it's saying that's port 3306 is busy.

What would be the best way with check what application is using that port and how to free it?

How do I know if my port 3306 is blocked?

netsh firewall show config If you have an active block (incoming connections are being dropped by firewall) after you start logging, you should see that in the log. If you are running an application/service that is listening on 3306, the firewall config should show it to be Enabled.

Why MySQL port is not working?

normally means that there is no MySQL server running on the system or that you are using an incorrect Unix socket file name or TCP/IP port number when trying to connect to the server. You should also check that the TCP/IP port you are using has not been blocked by a firewall or port blocking service.
