Look in your socket documentation for the header files and stuff there are like 5 of them that winsock.h replaces the sys/time is one of the i belive. You also want to add the sysdep.h and the config.h header files above and copy the general format that other files have for the defining of header files. Most of the errors probably came from the lack of portability programmed into the patch. Like I siad look at your source code and then make the mob patch look like that in defing ing the header files. Have fun.
