there is insufficient information :)  but this sort of Winsock problem
usually comes from assuming that replies will always fit neatly into
single lumps and will never be split across several individual FD_READ
events...

alternatively you have not realised that there can still be more data to
read when an FD_CLOSE appears. Read the Winsock 2 spec which has this
area far better documented than the 1.1 spec ever managed.
