Freezing Winsock Application after KB4338830 update


Our application suddenly keeps on freezing after some time this happens after the KB4338830 update. The unfortunately application cannot be restarted nor be closed, I suspect all of this is because the winsock(just ported) I`m using. It is written on vb.net, and the program has something to do with continuous sending and receiving data from other PCs.

Anybody encountered the same issue? solution? or at least how can I prove it is because of the update.
