I use TRUMPET's WINSOCK DLL. It is cheap and quite stable. Shareware.. And excuse any ignorance but do you have to start any TSRs any more, if you want to use TCP/IP? (I know there's inetipx.exe if you want to use IPX) Does it actually hurt (ie. would it explain the -932/ "WinSock: getservrbyname: Error reading WSANO_DATA" errors I got at a site today) if you've left the old PC/TCP stuff hanging around in the PC's memory? Just a packet driver for your NIC! Greg Bassett
