well, it will likely install into /usr/lib or at worst /usr/local/lib; if the
latter you'll want to add it to ld.so.cache perhaps but you can usually just
run ldconfig /path/to/lib/dir and be done with it.

i just downloaded:
http://www.alhem.net/Sockets/Sockets-1.9.8.tar.gz
and there is indeed a Makefile. what did you download exactly?
if you are looking for a cross-platform, GPL'd library that offers networking,
i would highly recommend Qt (http://www.trolltech.com) .. Qt4 is GPL'd on
Linux, UNIX, MacOS X and Windows.
disclaimer: they do pay my bills these days, but i was a Qt fan long before
than as i'm sure many on this list will coroborate ;)
