You can uninstall Apache if you dontwant to have a webserver/http server..or if you dontwant to run httpd you can simply stop/disable the service..
I guess this is wht ur looking for..if not plz elaborate the q to understand it better

Thanks for the help. but i guess we come back to square one. I want to uninstall httpd/apache and cannto do it through add remove programs becasue it cant find a rpm so is there any other way. All i do is click on the web server check box but it says failed to find httpd rpm. Hope thats what you are looking for.

It is possible that your RPM database is corrupt.
Try this:
As root, rm /var/lib/rpm/*_db
Then do rpm --rebuilddb
Then do rpm -qa | grep http
