I want to get as deep as I can get in sockets without having to learn hex. I heard this can be done in c++. I've been looking forever but I cant find anything.

deep as you can? what exactly do you mean?
I mean as deep as c++ is able to go
still doesnt explain much. you really dont need to get low-level with sockets ... i really cant think of a reason to do "low-level" sockets.
Well, C++ does not "do" socket programming. c++ does not even know what a socket is. c++ is grammar, libraries are the words. Ask this question at a WinSock forum and you might get a better response.
Imperito: i think hes asking for an api or something that does "low-level" sockets. at least thats how i heard it.
If you are on windows and assuming that "low level" means connection blocking and packet sniffing then you could look on the web for Winsock SPI's (Service Provider Interfaces)....though good luck as the documentation is thin and it is almost always writen by the same small group of MS documentors who seem to have problems writing simple tutorials

there is a lot about sockets in there. But if ur using windows, the windows "socket" isnt exactly the same as the unix version
