.lib files are only available on VC++. In Dev (MingW (GCC))), libraries are
named as lib*.a (example, libwsock32.a). To use it in your program, simply
add -lwsock32 to your command-line (under Project > Project Options >
General > Linker Options/Optional Libs or Object Files).

All the libraries available can be checked under the dev/lib folder.
