[Bug 37800] New: Skype 6.14 fails to start (fatal error, Wininet.dll)

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37800

            Bug ID: 37800
           Summary: Skype 6.14 fails to start (fatal error, Wininet.dll)
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wininet
          Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
          Reporter: computergeoffrey(a)zoho.com
      Distribution: ---

Steps:

1. Create a 32 bit wine prefix
2. Install Skype in it, using this executable:
http://hugsmile.eu/file/wine/SkypeSetupFull.exe
3. Launch Skype using its shortcut (.desktop file)

Skype does not start, and instead displays this warning:
"Failed to get proc address for PrivacyGetZonePreferenceW (Wininet.dll)"

Please note that I have installed ie6 in order to get the login screen working
(otherwise it does not display the login page correctly). However, I don't get
to the login screen :)

My other tries to get Skype working:

1. Execute winetricks ie7
2. Start Skype
3. Login screen flickers in black. OpenGL/hardware acceleration issue?

1. Execute winetricks ie8
2. Start Skype
3. Login screen is not shown, instead a Fatal Error is displayed: "Failed to
load library 'URLMON.DLL'"

Putting (copying it over the existing file) the Windows 7-native URLMON.DLL in
my wineprefix in drive_c/windows/system32 doesn't help either.

Wine's wininet has it implemented, you're using an outdated native dll (from
ie6).

Invalid.
