I have yet to finish doing this...it involves replacing the winsock.dll file with the one from Trumpet Winsock. The instructions with Crynwr's plip.exe (http://www.crynwr.com) discuss the 16-bit version for dos/win3.1, which is a 16-bit. The one from win95 is (i believe) a 32-bit winsock.dll. I don't know much about winsocks, but don't think I want to downgrade my winsock to 16-bit...although I'm not exactly sure why...it just doesn't seem like the right thing to do. Any winsock gurus care to shed some light? -David
