I've never heard of this happening, so I'm baffled and not sure where to begin debugging.
I'm on 14.04 and have had LAMP installed (as instructed here) for 3-6 months. Today, my laptop rebooted, and when I launched the browser to a localhost domain, I got the following:
Welcome to nginx!
If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required.
For online documentation and support please refer to nginx.org. Commercial support is available at nginx.com.
Thank you for using nginx.
I have no idea how/why nginx is appearing to be used. I've personally never installed it. I did recently do a "software update" via the GUI updater.
My apt/history.log does mention installing nginx, but I did not run that command (I checked my bash history):

Has anyone else experienced this? (Please comment.) Does anyone know why Nginx was suddenly installed and how to get back to where I was at (Apache owning :80
)?
Many thanks!
apt-get install nginx
on your.bash_history
, then I can only say: computers do work for us! or you just can't remember what you did :-)
