ClientSocket? 1

[edgarasm]

I'd like to know if there is a limit of connections that I can have in the same time.

It's a bad ideia to open a connection with ClientSocket and close the connection imediately when I finished using it?

When working with sockets in Windows, multiple approaches are possible. Reading and writing data from a socket can happen asynchronously, so it doesnt block the execution of other code in your network applictaion.
this is called a nonblocking connection.
You can use blocking, nonblocking and multithread connection.

Well it is up to you, but I would try multithread connection
