I understand! Would you advise me provide an interface similar
to CAsynchSocket in my library? Do you have any readings on the
subject?

I want to create myself a library usable both in console apps and
GUI apps. The idea of creating an hidden window to receive network
events sounds overkill to me.. but if its the way to go! Plus, it seems
that calls to reading and writing to the socket are a little serialized..
Another question: If someone is sending me a 1mb file, will I receive
hundreds of FD_READ message, even if I'm continuously reading
the socket?

I would need a good article on Winsock specific functions I guess :)

But you showed me the way to go, I'm on a start!
