    I highly recommend Network Programming for Microsoft Windows, Second Edition by Anthony Jones and Jim Ohmund.

    Would I get a lot more from that than I would from tutorials. Im guessing the answer would be yes seeing as how its pretty long. Another question though. How much knowledge should one have before reading it?

    None. A programmer with no prior experience with socket programming can master Winsock via that book in six months to a year.
