I got hold of the states tech support. There response was a lot better that
I expected. Upshot: This is considered to be an old program and they're
working on a replacement that won't have this problem. For now, the program
has MS internet protocols hard coded in it. The line in the error msg that
says "WinSock 2.0" is the key. Is there any way to get Wine to provide this
service?
