I hope you've found the Distinct fine print, requiring the distribution of
their VBX to be licensed for each user, even for winsockets applications. The
distinct VBXes require DISTINCT.DLL and GHOST.EXE and these check a socket.ini
for license information on any client that they run... kinda makes it
worthless for winsocket development on stacks other than Distincts.
