I am starting a networking project, and need to know the advantages and disadvantages of using raw sockets or the TCP Helper classes (TCPListener, TCPClient).

The project I am working on will be a project that can have multiple clients connecting, and maintaining the connection, then transfering Messages back an forth. Client State must be maintained for security reasons.

I have looked at the async examples of multi user server clients on MS, they one using the State object class, and several using the helper classes. I have not found examples of threading using thread pools on the raw socket level (Would like links if people have them) but have a full working example using thread pools and the helper classes.

Any help would be greatful
