Diablo 2 with Battle.net - another step closer again

[Robert Laverick]

Well that seems not to be the problem with battle.net, not that I've fixed it 
but that I've found something else that's what's causeing the problem...
thanks to the ability to sroll the display away from the aplicaion (never 
though I Thank that for anything!) I was able to see what's going on when it 
trys to connect to battle.net.  when I try to connect I get 2 fixmes very 
close together, I assume it's the program allowing 1 retry...

fixme:advapi:CryptAcquireContextA (0x4605440c, Blizzard_Storm, Microsoft Base 
Cryptographic Provider v1.0, 1, 00000000): stub!
fixme:advapi:CryptAcquireContextA (0x4605440c, Blizzard_Storm, Microsoft Base 
Cryptographic Provider v1.0, 1, 00000008): stub!

but like all my thoughts it could be complet rubish I'm just about to dive in 
and have alook, I'll post again when I get something alittle more concreet!
from the look of the name this isn't going to be good, I'll bet there's 
nowhere that this CryptAcquireContextA is properly documented and that it's 
all closed box, but somethimes I'm worng (more often than not it seems when 
thinking about wine <G> guess I'll get it eventualy)
Thoughts, comments? any crypto experts in the house?
I'll be back
