You can not cancel a pending connection attempt. All you can do is changes Windows registry settings to reduce the timeout, which can potentially cause other problems. A workaround is to ping the server first, with a configurable timeout, perhaps five seconds, to avoid a 40 second connect timeout. But this only proves the server exists, not that a socket is listening.
