You installed Apache2, and when you directly afterwards try to visit http://localhost you are greeted by the 403? Later restarting apache2 solves the problem?
I did a fresh install of apache2 and http://localhost/ immediately gave me a "It works!".
How did you go about installing apache2? Can you manage to reproduce this error?
