Looking on google,

http://www.google.co.uk/search?num=20&hl=en&c2coff=1&q=+Socket+operation+on+nonsocket%3A+recv+failed+&btnG=Search&meta=

this appears to be a windows error

Thank you for your reply.Does this mean that my application is not responcible for this exception?Because on most machines (app is available to download from internet and can be used freely) it doesn't throw this Exception, only on one Win 98 box.
