After quite alot of research I now know how to read the response from the server. I will also be moving from the native Delphi TTCPClient to the INDY TidTCPClient which is better documented and provides better data handling routines.
The INDY socket components are a collection of open source client and server components for C#, .NET 2.0, C++, Delphi, Visual Basic.NET, any .NET language. It is available at the INDY Project page
To implement the listner I will need to multithread my application and run a loop in the background to check for and retrieve data from the buffer.
Also needed will be to take the current testing login procedure and create a complete procedure that encompasses the entire login and hashing function.

Ok, so after some excruciating stupidity by me and a couple of hours scanning through documentation I finally have gotten my API to log onto the server and send back data. However, I have only seen this reply via Wireshark and am still having difficulty receiving the actual response.
-Back to documentation-

After having some difficulty setting up my DevZone account I finally have got everything up and running (Thank you admins 
). I will be dividing my project into categories, namely:
- API
- Implemntation into application
- User experience, settings and features
- GUI
I am not too concerned over the last 3 items as the mountain before me now is compiliong the protocol into a API class.
Good luck to all the other entrants!
