As you can see from the other answers, there are many Delphi libraries to simplify network programming. However, AFAIK all of them provide a friendlier level over the WinSock API (on Windows, through the standard API socket on other OSs) and therefore cannot do anything that the WinSock API cannot do. In particular, they may or may not support access to the raw socket, but if the OS does not delete data on the socket, the libraries will also return errors.
