winsock.ew as is has some bugs:

    At two places it incorrectly tries to free() a hostent structure.

    one place is:
              free(host)
    in WsockGetIP()

    another place is:
              free(phostent)
    in WsockHostInfo()

Or maybe the winsock.dll for XP is somehow incompatible ?
