--- Comment #19 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

I tried to replicate the DRM use-case with publicly available means (since OP
uses a private license which won't be helpful to investigate deeper).

Prerequisite: 'winetricks -q wmp10'

Website with some "example" DRM:

http://www.media-drm.com/Demo1.aspx

Example DRM enabled video file:
http://www.haihaisoft.com/download/Media-DRM-EN-sample_P.wmv

--- quote ---
When end users open your media content, in default settings Windows Media
Player will pop up a Windows link to www.media-drm.com acquire license. You can
set your own license URL in Media-DRM Premier and Business Account. The default
license page list Content Owners company name, website and product name. User
can select rights to acquire license. The default currency is US dollar. You
can set your own currency in Media-DRM Account.

After selecting the file in 'open' dialog, I get a popup "A security upgrade is
required to play this file. Do you want to download this file?"
Clicking 'yes' does nothing.

I found the following link which sounds similar:

http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/Indivsite/en/indivit.asp?force=1 ("Security
component upgrade")

Unfortunately it fails with builtin browser.

Maybe I revisit this later.
I don't feel the urge now to dig deeper into Microsoft DRM garbage.

$ sha1sum MP10Setup.exe 
69862273a5d9d97b4a2e5a3bd93898d259e86657  MP10Setup.exe

$ du -sh MP10Setup.exe 
13M    MP10Setup.exe

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.14-207-g8199430

Regards
