             Bug #: 30023
           Summary: Google Earth installer (google update version)
                    complains "could not connect to the internet"
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.4-rc5
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com
    Classification: Unclassified


This is just like bug 29074 in that the error dialog is the same
and native winhttp works around it, but it must be different under the hood.

To reproduce, grab
http://www.google.com/earth/download/thanks.html#os=win#updater=yes
(at the moment, that points to
http://dl.google.com/tag/s/appguid%3D%7B74AF07D8-FB8F-4d51-8AC7-927721D56EBB%7D%26iid%3D%7B5DBEA7C8-737D-5756-11C4-EA16649A70CF%7D%26lang%3Den%26browser%3D3%26usagestats%3D0%26appname%3DGoogle%2520Earth%26needsadmin%3DTrue%26brand%3DGGGE/earth/client/GoogleEarthSetup.exe
)

and run in a clean wineprefix.   After twenty seconds or so, the failure 
dialog pops up.

This seems to be the last bit of winhttp activity in the log before the
failure:
