Yum update will only update the packages that are installed already. I don't 
know which FC version you are using, but on installing the OS you normally 
have to specifically select httpd (Apache) for it to be installed. You can 
install Yumex. "yum install yumex", which is a GUI for Yum, and look for 
httpd, under "remove packages" to see if httpd is installed, then just remove 
it, if you don't want it.
