I'm not sure what to say. All my servers & clients (which
are stand alone apps or services) based on TClientSocket
and TServerSocket are working on LAN. Do not know for
internet because I have no such apps.

The only difference was that I was asked to confirm (unblock)
the app.

I'll made additional tests these days to check deeper.




Best regards,
Vladimir Stefanovic
