In the Readme for D'Bridge, I stated that XP is required at the minimum, and
the reason is because the version of BinkD that is included with D'Bridge was
compiled using a call to a procedure that does not exist in that DLL
version on Windows 2000 SP4.

If WS2_32.DLL on Windows 2000 is replaced by one from an XP installation, in
theory it should work; however, I cannot offer tech-support for this or any
problems that arise from trying that approach.
