Like Geo, I am not sure. However, I have a feeling that it is more than simply 
the name-lookup that Geo suggests (WINS is the Windows dynamic equivalent of 
DNS for translating Windows computer names to IP addresses).

I think it encompasses Windows networking on a TCP/IP interface (i.e. file and 
print sharing).
