Installing Sockso

First thing you'll need to do is download Sockso. You can get the latest version from here. It's a ZIP file, so unzip it somewhere on your computer where you'll keep Sockso.

And that's it! Sockso doesn't need an installer, it just runs right away! So when you've got that done you can move on to running sockso.

Requirements

The only thing Sockso requires is that Java is installed on your machine. Java has become pretty ubiquitous so you're almosty garaunteed to have it. If you don't then you can go download the latest version for free from here..

GCJ

NOTE: Sockso is not currently compatible with GCJ, it requires a Sun Java runtime.
