I know you can check for existing server sockets connected at a port by
doing a simple loop and
ServerSocket sock = new ServerSocket(i);

and checking to see if the connection had failed. Can you do something
like that with client sockets? For example, can you check to see if your
browser has a client socket set up at port 80??
