Ok, ive tried this over and over.. but does anybody know a API function that will put a winsock to sleep?

Something that i can call as in
Sleep_Sock(Winsock1)
and let it sleep for lets say 20 seconds, and then revive itself.

Ive gotten suggestions about the
Sleep API
But that freezes the entire program.

I also dont want to use a timer because i have different winsocks in different indexes loaded. As in

Winsock(1, 2, 3, 4)

And i never know which 1 will be connected upon, a timmer would be to messy.

Any suggestions? Please?!
