It did not work for me when I tried it a few years ago. I tried to make a
smart whois program. I did not find out it would not work until after I
finished writing it. :( The explanation I got was that the Dolphin Sockets
depended upon windows. For some reason I have a vague feeling like that may
change in D6.
