TCP or UDP? are you checking the length of the buffers you get back from recv? are you sure it's skipping and not just getting out of sync? does replacing the recv() with read() on a socket stream (use makefile() to create the stream) help? </F> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
