COM object that uses MFC and MFC Socket class
Derive from CWindowImpl<> and specify NULL as the parent window.
Of course if you are using MFC, you could just use a CWnd window...
And why use ATL at all? MFC can implement COM and Automation
interfaces - read TN038 and TN039. There's no point whatsoever
in mixing MFC and ATL... (You can even implement dual interfaces
in MFC, although I don't know the details...)
