Details:

I've noticed that when my dialup connection dies and reconnects that mldonkey
is slow to start downloading and uploading normally.  I figure this is because
there are a lot of stale connections that haven't timed-out.  When I used the
command close_all_sockets mlnet started uploading again and began finding
sources normally again.  Maybe it would be beneficial to 'close_all_sockets'
or something similar (so the GUI doesn't get disconnected needlessly...). 
However it probably wouldn't know to close the sockets until one of the
connections to a server timed out or something (and when you connect to a new
server and obtain a different IP from the last one).
