Because of some intermittent problems I am having with an older laptop (XP
Home SP-2) connecting to the internet through a wireless home network, the
router's tech support suggested I try winsockXPfix. I read about it (
http://www.cit.cornell.edu/computer/security/spyware/repair.html )
and learned that it is considered a "non-standard" repair technique and that
I should backup critical files before using it.
I was wondering what kind of winsock "customizations" they are talking about
that I might lose? Isn't winsock just a standard thing or do I misunderstand
what it is. How safe is winsockXPfix to use?
Thanks.
