Additional information: it doesn't time-out even if left for 15m. When I then kill the flash client the server finally notices/accepts/completes the connection. So, I think the above error is a red-herring. I.e.: 1. I kill flash client 2. php accepts connection and tries to send data 3. It fails (because the flash client has just disappeared!) Something changed between Flash 8 and Flash 9 in the way that sockets work. Does that ring any bells with anyone? It only affects windows, not linux. Carriage-returns? Darren P.S.
