Jeff,

Sounds to me like your socket is in blocking mode... this code will only work properly in non-blocking mode.

Scott,
The issue I was having was when there was no data to be read, the read
would just wait forever. I was not getting a timeout because the Select to
set the timeout had not executed yet.

I changed my procedure to issue the recv after the select() and now it
works fine.
