CAsyncSocket and dead sockets
If a peer closes the other one gets a OnClose event.
If the network pull the plug, it will time out , you'll get a OnClose with
an error message.
TCP chats away down below, so you dont have to poll.
Have a look at this little app, I use it because theres actually a hell of a
lot more to TCP comms than I thought http://www.geocities.com/coshunt/
