    How can i make a socket client free of DLLs

    I have a computer that cant have new DLLs registration, if i use Winsock to create a client, will i need to install winsock.dll on that computer?

    All today's Windows versions already have winsock installed, but yes, if you use winsock, you need the winsock dll. But the dll could be placed in the app directory, as well.

    new DLLs registration
    What does it mean? only com-dll require reqistration.
    Regular dlls work without it
