Try to start it manually and see what errors the listerner gives (lsnrctl start - but I guess Ora8 will call the program lsnrctl80.exe or something). There may be a config error in the listener.ora file or something. Another place to look for errors is the Event Viewer. If you're lucky, the listener service or NT would have recorded the reason the service faild to start. :-)

They don't use the listener for local connections - which is why they work fine.
