Just for closure -
I downloaded the dll patch (ws2_32.dll from http://www.winmxgroup.com/)
and it did the trick for me. I'm running Win2K on a LAN behind a
firewalled cable modem, so I can only make a secondary connection.
With a new HOSTS file and .WSX file (listing servers), but no dll file,
I could use OpenNap but found it combersome compared to the usual Peer
Network. However, when I put the dll patch in my WinMX Program Files
folder, I could connect to the Peer Network, but I can no longer
connect to any servers on OpenNap. All I get is a "Connection time
out" message for each server I try to connect to, but I'm happy with
the Peer Network.
