Here is the help: Get linux, Windows XP or higher, or a new PC. Windows 2000 can not run TPT so well.
WS2_32.DLL is the winsock service to get to the server, if I am not mistaken. It was introduced into Windows XP service pack 1a.

Windows XP - you can buy a copy really cheap on E-Bay, alternatively you could pirate it.
Linux - Go to www.ubuntu.com and follow the instructions.
