127 hrs of programming

Here are the problems encountered with the latest projects especially when Windows when all cranky with me.

Temp profile when I logged in. After searching, the answer was to backup everything, delete the temp profile under the following
control panel -> Advanced System Properties -> Advanced -> User Profiles -> Settings
and delete the temp profile.
Reboot.

When this happened, all the links in Visual Studio and some stupid programs like grapheditplus requires you to register again.
Using #include iphlpapi.h

was a pain cos you have to link the include and lib path all over again.
then add

#ifndef WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN #endif  
#include windows.h

So that it will use winsock2.h instead of winsock.h
