[Bug 5413] New: Shareaza can't connect without existing HostCache.dat

[Wine Bugs]

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5413

           Summary: Shareaza can't connect without existing HostCache.dat
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.15.
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=1447
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-net
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: adrian.macneil at gmail.com


In Shareaza (www.shareaza.com), the p2p program won't connect to the gnutella2
network, even if you leave it running for hours. Interestingly, it connects to
the ed2k network fine. All the host discovery services fail to return results.

Workaround:
Copy HostCache.dat from a working Shareaza install to
~/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/user/Application Data/Shareaza/Data/

Thoughts:
It could be that Shareaza can't connect to web-based discovery services at all.
Once it has working hosts to connect to it has other methods of discovering new
hosts.

I'm not sure how to debug this bug, so if you give me some instructions on how
to get some logs or something I will gladly help.
