Perhaps they are in there, but I haven't found any Winsock support in
Lazarus. HTTP, FTP, NNTP and chat would be nice additions.

Is anyone working on porting in the Delphi FPiette freeware winsock
component library?

Yes , thereisn't the winsock unit. I don't know if in the FPC(Free
Pascal Compiler)package there's !!
but the winsock delphi unit is only for WINDOWS, Lazarus is compatible
also with Linux and others , i think it theresn't because the winsock
unit isn't compatible with Linux .
If you see also in Kylix thereisn't the Winsock unit .
Hello !!

What are actually the possibility to have acces to internet?
For example, my application needs to check on the net to serach for
updates and check some available data. How can I perform this? :?:

Hmm let inspect what we got with lazarus...
in the directory "lazaus \components\turbopower_ipro" you`ll find
TurboPower Internet Professional. I think it should be enough ;-) but
I`m not sure that/how it works (I`ve not tested) But if You don`t like
turbo power, you can use unit Sockets
