And there's absolutely no way around it?

Correct -- the problem stems from the way microsoft "upgraded" WinSock 2.0 from WinSock 1.0. It's easy for statically linked in apps to get the right before, but for dynamically linked apps such as RB apps, things are a bit more tricky.

One last question... What if the app is built with RB on Windows instead of Mac OS X. Would that make the app behave?
