WoW error: Cant create socket. Help pls.

[milvan]

*sigh* i really am hopeless at this WoW stuff, mkay my problem this time is actually joining a server, i set the realmlist perfectly (set realmlist xxxxxxxxx), and im using wow.exe to open the thing. I made a game account on a server, and its been like 18 hours since registering it (an actual game account, not just a site account).


So when i open wow.exe now, it takes me to the login screen, and right as soon as i type in my info and hit login, it crashes and gives me the followin error message. Any help would be massively appreciated, and ill +rep for whatever its worth.
