WON Server
 

About a week ago I went to this place called "PC BANG" in Paramount, CA. What it is is a kind of arcade place where you play games like "Half Life" on networked computers and it's really cool. Anyway, as I started to connect to the network the client machine I was on was requesting access to a WON Server. I wanted to know If someone could please tell me what the acronym WON stands for and what the purpose of a WON Server is. Thank you.
