    Keep your money, I don't want it. Just do what the error message says: initialise winsock:

    WORD wVersionRequested;
    WSADATA wsaData;
    int err;
    wVersionRequested = MAKEWORD( 2, 2 );
    err = WSAStartup( wVersionRequested, &wsaData );
    if ( err != 0 ) { 
       /* Tell the user that we could not find a usable */ 
       /* WinSock DLL. */ 
       return;
    }
    /* do your thing here */


    WSACleanup( );

    I think the problem is that you are trying to use another program that has a problem.  The above code is what you would have done if you were writing a program.  At this point, about all you can do is contact the author of the program and see if they have a fix... they might not even know about the bug and/or it might be a problem exposed by your environment.  Either way, this is not something that will likely be "fixed" by anyone on this forum.
