While that works for some.. it may not for all. I am *thinking* I might as well add it to the FAQ now with other tips that also work for other problems. These things go way back to 1.12 of xolox.

In getting the "socketdata" error OR startup errors after using XoloX , another thing besides purging the registry as noted here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=12955
.... is to also delete the resume text file in the directory xolox was installed in. While this will cause your resume info to be lost, it is another possible solution for those that get startup problems( EaccessViolations) after being able to use XoloX initially without a problem and then having it crash on startup. Perhaps i'll add a few more *possible* solutions to problems as mere suggestions in the FAQ.

note : save the resume file text in another folder and replace it afterwards manually to resume your files. By deleting the resumeinfo.txt you will lose all your partial downloads ( unless you save it in another folder or rename it )

See the post by 'theSeeker' that explains you how to fix a corrupted resumefile.txt which WILL cause EaccessVoliations and other start up errors if this was to happen to you.
