There are a number of books about WinSock but I don't know a single one since I'm a cheapskate, just go look it up at http://www.amazon.com.

Read WSAPI22.DOC which is linked to by http://www.sockets.com. You may also want to download the WinSock 2 SDK, which, again, is linked to by http://www.sockets.com. You should also download the WinSock FAQ from http://www.sockets.com.

My email address is ceo@intertainment.8m.com, feel free to complain, suggest, or anything else.
