screen print of the error message

After successfully installing wine 1.6.1 from the Mageia 4 RC repository to an
Asus netbook and installing a Windows program from a 1996 cover CD, I decided
that I needed a larger drive an more RAM.

When both were installed and the system re-installed from the same DVD, I again
installed wine 1.6.1 (including qtwine version 1.0 and again attempted to
install the same program.

It failed with two results, an error window displaying:

"The program winevdm.exe encountered a serious problem and needs to close.
We are sorry for the inconvenience."

but more surprisingly, the browser came up with this url.

This is a political message. Does this mean wine is now held hostage?

I was able to reproduce this effect a second time.
