I don't think moving to cygwin will help you. Unfortunately, I've never
used Code::Blocks on any platform. The core fact remains, though: you need
to link against winsock. This is a common need when programming for
Windows, independent of crypto++. Your best chance for a useful answer is
to ask in a forum specific to Code::Blocks on windows or try a search along
these lines:
