40 seconds comes to mind, which is why most of my applications ping a
server before attempting to connect to it, since ping has a configurable
timeout.  

If you Goggle the TcpMaxConnectRetransmissions and TcpInitialRTT registry
keys, you'll find information about the connect timeouts work.  Beware
changing the default (or non-existent keys) values, it effects every TCP
connection on the PC.  

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip

[twsocket] Windows TCP connect timeout

[Markus Humm]

Hello,

I've learned once that the default timeout for reporting a failed TCP
connect attemp is 45 seconds for Windows? Is this correct and is there
any public source about this available?

Greetings

Markus
