i recently discovered some worm on my network that tried to spread a
payload file 'xxxxxxxx' by binding on port 80. it didn't serve a
banner or any webpages, but http://<ip>/xxxxxxxx worked.

The easiest and fastest approach is to use a port mapping utility like
Active Ports
(http://www.ntutility.com) or TCPview (www.sysinternals.com) (there are
others like fport, etc...) which will allow you to see what process has port
80 open on the machines.

This will allow you to identify what application/process is utilizing that
port.
