sock.recv() in Windows

[Jason]

Hi,

When using the socket module in Python 2.3 for windows, I'm having problems
using socket.recv(int).  The function works fine on its own, but when I
attempt to encapsulate the socket functions into a class method, my script
just hangs with the Python DOS window open.

My class method is simple:

def getData(self, max_size=1024):
    return self.sock.recv(max_size)

Why would an instance of this class cause python to hang in windows?  (Yes,
I know Windows sucks, but I'm looking for a slightly better resolution to
the problem ;)

Thanx,

Jay
