Hi,
When trying to connect multiplayer, keep getting the following:
"error 10035: error detected on network device"
This message fills my chat screen and keeps scrolling, then I boot
Anyone have any idea as to cause and cure?
Thanks,
Bob Geddes
It is a Winsock error. It has to do with the tcp/ip connection to your
provider. The code means "Operation would block", but I don't know what that
means. Best thing to do is contact your provider for advise.

In fact this sounds like a bug in GPL itself - this error is
deliberately returned from a socket that has been put into
"non-blocking" mode because the application is trying to deal with it in
a single thread.
What is supposed to happen is that the application waits until the
socket is ready (to send or receive, as appropriate), and then deals
with it.
If the error leaks out then it shows that the application wasn't
expecting to have to wait, so the error could be manifested when the
connection is poor, but should still be dealt with by the app.
