A little bit more information, please?

What are "out" and "in"? Are they connected to the socket? If so, how 
does your logic do the connection? Every time you open the socket, do 
you immediately connect "out" and "in" to the socket? If so, you're OK, 
since you'll get a brand new out and in.

But it's generally good etiquette to close any streams that you open. 
Also, for sockets, it's polite to shut down the socket cleanly before 
closing it.  (See Socket.shutdownInput() and Socket.shutdownOutput()).
