Default Raw socket support in Winsock ?

Hi,
I came across the below link -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raw_socket

I am eager to know the reasons for the raw socket
support in the Winsock interface during the initial
Windows XP release ?
Any specific reasons / uses for it ?

Thx in advans,
Karthik Balaguru
