Winsock 1 _is_ preserved when upgrading to Winsock 2 - at least, the DLL is 
still there and exports the same API.  The difference is that it then 
becomes a 'thunk' into Winsock 2.  Have you _tried_ the new application on 
Windows 98?

If you truly want to keep Winsock 1, note that there are a few things that 
will prevent Winsock 2's upgrade procedure from occurring - the main one is 
the absence of TCP/IP.

Alun.
