I develop a program which connect to a web-server through network every thing works fine until I try to use some dongle to protect my software. the dongle has network feature too and it's API work under network infrastructure. when I added the Dongle checking code to my program I got this error:
"Either the application has not called WSAStartup, or WSAStartup failed"
I don't have any idea what is going on?
I put the block of code which encounter exception here. the scenario I got the exception is I log in to the program (everything works fine) the plug out the dongle then the program stop and ask for dongle and I plug in the dongle again and try to log in bu I got exception on line
response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
DongleService unikey = new DongleService();
checkDongle = unikey.isConnectedNow();
if (checkDongle)
