[Implemented] Timeout Parameter for OpenNetworkConnection()

This would be very handy!
If you try to connect to a dead Server it sometimes needs 10 or more Seconds till it recognizes the other station isn't available.
In this time your whole program is not responding (if not thread-handled).

An optional Timeout-Parameter would be nice.

i agree for the optional timeout parameter

however if you need your program to dont hang maybe you should do some thread stuff
becasuse some times big reply times its needed for a slow connection to reply etc

would be nice .. also for ReceiveNetworkData()

isn't there at least a way to set a timeout value using ASM or WinAPI ?
