According to the Winsock error codes that I found this error is a permission denied error. Are you running any other firewall software? Do you have anything else running on this port? What do you see when you do a netstat?

the port must be in use , try another ...

I had the same problem, im using w2k server and latest update in wingate.
I changed the port on socks 3 times.. im kinda tired of configuring all the clients every 3 or 4 month..
It seems like the port stay blocked for ever.. i cant configure it in port 1080 like i have it the first time i installed the proxy, because all the port that were failing are all blocked, i must use a new one.

hey sazunike..
I had found a way to Get away this error ..
it's always Hit on Socks Proxy i don't know why ..
no other Service is Using this Port = 1080..
cuz when u creat another service like TCP map serive on Port 1080. it will work fine .. But at the same time if u change the port of socks service it will Fail..
SO here is a Sloution..
Create another serive "TCP map" ON port 1080
and Map it Local binds like if u have configured the socks on 1090 then
map it to 127.0.0.1 and port 1090.
so that u don't have to Change all the clinets Settings.
it's Expreimental cuz it's always work on my side .. don't know about other people.
just give it a try..
but beware this will eat up ur Ram and CPU .. all little bit more then before.
Take care.
