(of course, I meant: "No, any order will do")

I have updated my sources with the Windows modifications you have made, 
but I haven't had time to look at the code already. I would guess that 
something must not be working properly with winsocks, while waiting for 
a new connection from a master; I'll be looking at it this evening.

Please, also be careful in using the default TCP port, since a web 
server might be running on your host and already listening to port 80 
(this can be checked by trying to open http://localhost:80 in your web 
browser)

Maybe I should change the default port to something else... anyone has 
directions about which number to choose?
