That socket connection is to a remote machine, not the same one. Your
test code works fine for me. The "hang then crash" (and I'm assuming
"crash" here means an uncaught exception) just means that your packets
are being silently ignored by whatever machine you're actually
attempting to connect to. It's possible that your machine has odd DNS
settings causing buzkor.hopto.org to resolve to the wrong address.
