That's the problem alright.  The drag and drop mechanism in BLT uses a
feature that ends up (with Windows) sending information via sockets.
The sockets support requires that you have the winsock dll and related
stuff.  One way to get the winsock stuff by setting up your machine
for dialin to an ISP.
