The winsock is a set of registry entries. You can find them at :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Winsock]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Winsock2]

Deleting and then restoring a good set puts it back to the default configuration and any config problems can be solved that way for instance if you had bad settings you can just come back to default this way rather then trying to fix it
