There is a link to it from here: http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/lsck/lsck_lnk.htm The Winsock API is similar to the BSD sockets API in many ways, but there are some important differences: there are initialisation/uninitialisation functions; there are some extra functions for asynchronous I/O.
