How to do networking stuff with c++

I think i posted something like this before but i cant find it in my topics thing, i think i delted it. but anyways I wanted to make a chat program that two people can chat through live like skype. I just want to use the cmd as a chatbox im not going to do any win api windows or anything. what libraries could i use? preferrably something really easy to use and learn. can you give me some links to ones that are easy to use and stuff?

Nobody knows of an easy to learn networking library?
take a look at sockets .. I ll try and find some sample code...
boost.asio comes with chat client/server app in the examples section:
