| Try setting a default timeout on the socket, and if it times out | recontact the other system on a new socket. See socket.setdefaultimeout() | | regards | Steve Thank you for your answers. I'm beggining to suspect that the problem has to do with a discontinual of service of the ISP. It provides me a dynamic IP address not a static one. I say this because after some hours, I returned to the computer and could not acess the internet for surfing port 80 and the socket was also down again - it just uses another port. After unplugging the power cord of the cable modem from the internet and pluging it in after a while, I could already access sites (http). But the socket was still down, still with no error raised. Based on this hypothesis, is there any way for my python program to deal with this? Any thoughts? Thanks again.
