wine users - Apr 2009 - replace wine's mswsock.dll with the M$ one?

I was wondering if I replace the mswsock.dll with the one on my winXP partition
could solve the acceptEX problem.
I have both win98 and winXP CDs (my winVista Laptop didn't come with any),
so I was thinking if I replace those problematic DLLs or use a full windows
installation somehow, it might solve this problem.

In some cases using a native dll, solves the problem. In most cases it
causes more problems or does not work at all and it also may violate
the windows license. I am not sure of this particular instance. Also
aren't there patches for accepex in some of the bug reports?

Actually, there is a patch. It's from a few days ago, I didn't saw that.
In any case, if using the windows DLL version might solve the problem, it would
be a lot easier (and stable I think) doing this way.
I'm gonna try this new patch.

thanks
