In addition to Ralf's advice (which is correct), you can/should
configure a firewall to prevent connections to port 80 and 443 (and
really everything except how you connect to the box which is probably
ssh) just to be double-safe.  You can use iptables for this, but if
iptables is really confusing to you, I personally use shorewall which
abstracts iptables to configuration files that make (more) sense.
