This is a windows error, and not a postgresql one. We just ask for it, even the error message is from windows.
If wsock32 can't be loaded, you have a big problem on your system. It could be many thingt - permissions, antivirus, firewall, etc.
You will have tol investigate that at the OS level, and contact your support there if you can't find it yourself.
