[Wine] networking issues

[Steve Paras-Charlton]

Walt,

Bless you for the *smack* on the head.  firefox has no issues accessing the net
over wine, so it's obviously not a general wine issue as I had thought.

I still have to figgure out how to get InternetExploder running, but this is a
great step forward!

Thanks,

Steve
