LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file "wsock32.lib"
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'link.exe' : return code '0x49d'
Stop.

Fix:
cl.exe, the VC++ compiler is not able to locate the link library (.lib) files by default when it runs in command prompt. All that needs to be done is adding the default LIB folder of VC++ to the terminal window. By default, your LIB directory should be located in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib (assuming you installed with default settings in C Drive, or just look for it in your system). So just type in the following line in command prompt:

<strong>set LIB=C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual StudioVC98Lib</strong>
