I need to do some Windows socket programming, for XP, using VS 2008. I don't have wssock32.dll or ws2-32.dll on my system, and I can't seem to find a source on the internet or on MSDN. Can anyone suggest a source>

Hi, can you be more specific - on which system do you have installed VS2008?

As I know, libraries are named wsock32.dll and ws2_32.dll and they are part of the system (located in system32 folder). Link libraries (.lib) should be installed together with VS2008, but you must have selected C++.
