Winsock Error 10091

Some programs like mIRC, AIM, PalTalk & ZoneAlarm all do not open. mIRC give an error when i double-click on the icon. 'Winsock error: [10091] Network SubSystem is unavailable'. And PalTalk says 'Cannot initialize socket library, error 10091: System not ready'. I did do a search on this and it says something about check if winsock.dll is in the right folder. well it is in the right folder and there's only one file of it. I also tried that LSP-Fix, that didn't work either. I would really like to fix this issue! Thank you.

That didn't seem to work, I did what it said and restarted, I still get those error messages on mIRC and PalTalk.

Have you tried reinstalling those two pieces of software? That may fix your problem.
