annoyances in socks

No, i didn't mean *me* in socks, i meant using winsocks with Eu code. I have noted some incompatability between IE5 and euLibnet, especially when running tcp4u. The tcp4u code runs fine, and IE runs as well as any other microsoft code,, but when those two are run with an euLibnet application, and an error occurs, IE crashes, the euLibnet-based app won't recover gracefully from the error (i haveto shut them down), and fairly quickly the puter locks up if anything happens in an IE5 session, such as moving the mouse or scrolling or loading a new url,, or launching another IE window from the desktop. I am using them fairly robustly, on average, i am doing a tcp to assorted webservers every 1.5 minutes per application instance (they could run faster, but the sites get angry, so i put in some sleep(60)s), and have 4 to 9 instances running round the clock. Has anyone else noted this crashing incompatability scenario or have an idea why it's happening? I either have the http proxy set to "bypass", or it's not running when this happens. Kat
