win2000 the procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in WS2_32.dl

Hi all

I tried to install frogatto-1.0-win32.exe on win2000 sp4.
It installed fine, but when I try to run it I get an error.
the procedure entry point freeaddrinfo could not be located in WS2_32.dll.

Info about the cause can be found here. Unfortunately I’m not technical enough to try and compile this myself, but the following link possibly has info about how this can be fixed for all versions.

An alternative would be to add a note on the download page indicating that it doesn’t work on win2000.

Interesting - thanks for the report! Should be possible to fix, I think.
