Since I cannot send a message directly to vitamin:

Wine 0.9.60 is already in release.  Maybe you were referring to 0.9.61?

If the IP address works, and this can be found by opening a terminal 
window and inputting:

dig <hostname> where you replace <hostname> with the site name you were 
attempting to connect with, example

dig www.cnn.com

results in:

; <<>> DiG 9.3.4 <<>> www.cnn.com

on my MacIntosh computer

thus I would place in the address field of Opera:

http://64.236.91.21

and I should connect to cnn.com

Replace with your favorite site and this should work.

Some people use the deprecated nslookup instead of dig.
