To my knowledge, the only vendor shipping a TCP/IP package for Windows
is NetManage, Inc. Their package is called NetManage NEWT, and it has
a fairly complete socket library. 

I've been using NEWT since late November, and I've been happy both
with the functionality it offers and with Netmanages excellent support.
