What
To Do When Windows Socket Failed 
Suppose you are running your windows
system when you start your PC you received one message
popping up that Windows socket failed
during the initialization. Once you got that message
you are not able to connect to the internet through
your modem, but you can see that the data link of your
modem is stable, that signifies that the modem is receiving
data from the line. Once you get the warning Windows
socket failed, it may be possible that you
start getting several other problems eventually.
The most pathetic scenario of this error is that it
does not return any specific reason of the error. There
are some specific internal functions which basically
return the specific error details after analyzing the
thread. Basically the network environment from the exchange
server receives the configuration from the Proxy settings.
Error like Windows socket failed may
occur when it tries to deal with the TCP/IP settings
and the system is unable to start the service. It can
also be possible that there are some program which is
looking for server is not there at all. In that case
one can find out which are the programs running in the
system. You can also try out for the port scanner to
check out what are the ports open in your system. The
system may show Windows socket failed
even when some corruptions have occurred due to a specific
application program installation or uninstall.
One needs to check out the Firewall settings because
it may be possible that certain settings of firewall
are blocking the internet connection. There are certain
protocols which actually block the process to run. To
get rid of this issue either you need to block the firewall
or you need to add some exception to this. One should
surely use some registry cleaning tools to maintain
the registry issues in regular interval. These registry
software help to protect your system from any sort of
mal functioning.
