I can be on the net and checking my emails, and the next thing I know, Windows Internet Explorer says it cannot display the web page. I do a Network Diagnostic to check my connectivity, and my WINSOCK settings have been changed. The Network Diagnostic can reset them to default, but I have to do a restart every time. This happens a lot. Can anyone tell me how to isolate the problem and fix it. I have run a full system scan by my security system, Windows Live OneCare, and there are no problems detectable. HELP!

For my computing A2 coursework (written in Visual Basic 6.0) i created a chess game that works via the UDP property of the winsock control. (LAN rather than internet based)

However, Im resiting the year and want to do something more challening, and want to create the same via the TCP property of the winsock control.

Can someone explain the steps needed to connect two computers, via the TCP and code examples. Unless its written in Visual Basic 6.0 its just foreign to me.

Thanks :]

look a image with the error!

What is wrong?
Maybe the winsock file is corrupted?
Can u send me trough via email this file?
Thanks!

Hey, i’ve been working on a chat system. If anyone could help by post step by step and source code instructions, that would be great. I’ve tried other methods and I always get some weird error. Anyway, I would like to know how to make a server/client. Thanks

Hi guys, im making a program that will accept incoming winsock requests. This form is listening & should accept any requests. The compiler simply wont compile!!!

[CODE]
Private Sub frmConnecting_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

win.Close()
win.LocalPort = localPort
win.Listen()
win.Accept() ‘TODO STUCK HERE <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
End Sub
[/CODE]

The error i keep on getting is:
Error1Argument not specified for parameter ‘requestID’ of ‘Public Sub Accept(requestID As Integer)’.

…im guessing its aking for an integer but i dont know why! ive tried 0-9 but to no avail. In VB6 it works fine!

Plz help!

I’m having trouble with another computer I have, my laptop… running WinXP SP3, use both Internet Explorer 8 and also Firefox, for a long long time, I’ve been using the same security softwares for firewall and anti-virus, along with spam/malware blockers, etc, and never had this problem before…… I can connect to my ISP no problem, but can’t view the web in my browser(s)… not getting loop back connections from websites… so I am getting the WinSock error 10049…. I really need to get this other machine working again….ASAP. Can anyone help me!!??
Thanks bill… your answer reaffirms what I’ve been studying up on with the error found…seems to me most every other source was telling of the same thing… to clean out the registry… Will alttempt it and then let you know if the issue is resolved… I just hope that is all it is… registry cleaning… if not, will post the results… thanks again!

Here we go. I’m fixing my friend’s dell (windows xp). It had some viruses and I cleaned it up in regular operation mode, then again in safe mode and removed 4 infected files. Today when the virus scan was running I was able to access the internet, then ever since it says there is a corrupted/deleted file in the winsock catalog and it has limited or no connectivity. So, I tried running the diagnostic for internet explorer and it reset it, but that didn’t work. Tried searching the winsock fix manually in “search” and it reset it, but that didn’t work. Then I tried going into command prompt and typing in the key words and it reset it again, but still didn’t work. The wisock repair didn’t work, but it still won’t let me go online and keeps asking me to reset, then restart, but it still won’t work. Is the antivirus not doing the job and getting all those viruses out or something? What’s going on? Not sure how up to date her security is. Can’t access antivirus software online either? help!!
I typed in sfc /scan now
and like I said, it reset it, but I still keep getting the error. Any idea what could be wrong?

Private Sub Winsock3_DataArrival(ByVal bytesTotal As Long)
Dim buff As String
Winsock3.GetData buff
If buff = “up” Then
CuadroSY = CuadroSY – 60
Winsock3.SendData Text3.Text & vbCrLf, Cuadrox, Cuadroy, CuadroSX, CuadroSY
Winsock2.SendData Text3.Text & vbCrLf, Cuadrox, Cuadroy, CuadroSX, CuadroSY……….
everything after this is ok, i just dont want to copy all..
What i want to do here is that after receiving some variables from the client, the server fix some numbers and send back to 2 clients (using winsock2 and winsock 3) but i get “compilation error” that highlight the SendData and only the Senddata. It doesnt highlight all the sentences and neither Winsock3, just the word SendData

Okay here’s the deal. I’m making a simple HTTP server in C. I made a quick demo and I am able to connect to it via a browser using my home ip: 192.168.0.125.

So naturally I wanted to see if I could connect to it using my REAL ip address. I went on a get-your-ip type website and I entered that address into my browser and it wouldn’t connect. I also tried from other computers on my home network and it doesn’t work. Is it only possible to connect to my winsock program from computers outside my LAN?

I have tryed everything.I was downloading on limewire I knew better but did it anyway.I downloaded a virus.It will not let me stay on line for longer than 2 minutes.It is a winsock problem.I have scaned my computer with about everything you can think of.I even downloaded Winsockex fix.It is not working.Please someone help me.I have been working on this now for 3 days.I do not have my windows disk.I can not just start over.Can someone tell me what files i need to look for or how i can maby find the virus.I did a surch for any new files in my computer for the day i got the virus.I am at a loss.

As stated before, I tried that. Thanks for the advice though.

How can i use winsock in a console application in C#(Sharp) ?
I’m trying to learn C# by creating a irc bot.

Thanks!

Pc with a ADSL connection through ADSL Modem. It connects to the internet, it gets an ip and all (checked with ipconfig). From command i can ping my gateway to the internet as well as the DNS i am provided with. When i try to ping google or anything else, it reports it couldnt find the host. Same with web browser also (either Firefox or Explorer).
If i do a repair in the TCP/IP stack and Winsock and reboot everything works fine for a while. I can ping anything from command, i can access with browser anything. After a while connection gets lost again.
When i lose connection an entry is logged in widows event viewer with the following details:
Event id: 4307 (Initialization failed because the transport refused to open initial Addresses)
Source: NetBt
I have scanned with up to date Panda Antivirus and Spybot S&D, also did all microsoft updates (System Win Xp Pro)

Any ideas? Format not an option….

Okay, so i have a control array i call it box(index) now. If i click on the fifth box, then index=5 right? what i want to do is send that index number i.e. i want to send the number 5 via winsock. So far I’ve got:
Winsock1.SendData index
but whenever i run the program, an error message comes that says it was a wrong command, and when i ask it to debug, it highlights that area. so, my question is. How do i send that integer variable via winsock? Your help is very much appreciated
yeah sorry, it said wrong data type…umm, i think i already declared index to be an integer and i still get that…maybe i declared it wrong, should i do it again? and if yes, where? cause im still learning Visual Basic, so i’m quite new to it
yeah it works now, thanks for the help just one more thing…u know how you wrote:
n, vbindex, 4
what does the letter ‘vb’ do and what does 4 do?is 4 just the size?
no problem man, thanks so much for your help, it works all fine now i really appreciate it!!

I am developing a Winsock 2 API, and was wondering how a client program can connect to a server across the internet on a LAN.

I know how to find the IP addresses and all that stuff, but how do I connect the client to the server through the router? Can this be specified when creating the socket connection, or does the router have to be configured to forward the messages? If so, how do I configure the router?

Thanks.

I want to declare a new winsock inside a module.
SO i can use the same socket from all of my Forms.
But “Object Variable or With Variable not set” …
Or is there any other way to make a “Global” WinSock?

Thanks!

when i try to renew my ipconfig i get the following error: an error has occurred while renewing interface Local Area Connection 2 : An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket. what the heck does theat mean? oh yeah, I have service pack one.
