Please tell us more about your application. Like what protocol(s) and how
often does it get the problem compared to how often/long it operates fine and
if you can detect any other patterns in this behavior etc.

I found a description for the 10055 here:
http://www.dispi.com/proxyplus/faq/articles/EN/art10002.htm

"WSAENOBUFS should occur when the system has not enough memory or other system
resources to open new TCP/IP socket or to handle socket data. It looks like
that in most cases the problem occurs when total count of opened sockets
reaches some magical number. MS writes that this limit is 3976 simultaneously
opened sockets but it seems that on Win9x systems the real limit is much
lower. "
