--- Comment #4 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net 2010-08-19 04:57:11 --- Hello,
can't reproduce the reported hangs.
(clean WINEPREFIX, 'winetricks dotnet20' prerequisite).
$ wine --version wine-1.3.0-396-g8333559
I used the bootstrap-downloader "MTGOIII_Helper.exe" to download the full game installer.
Interestingly they employ some kind of bittorrent protocol scheme, deferring bandwidth burden to users ;-)
I got around 500 KiB/s download (100-150 KiB/s per connected client) and it took around 100 KiB/s upload bandwidth (which is only a fraction my pipe can deliver). They probably limited the upload to not take too much from users.
Indeed they state the client behaviour:

--- quote --- When you use the Wizards Downloader to download Wizards Games, you temporarily participate in a secure, closed network where you receive pieces of the game files from multiple sources, including other active users. --- quote ---
Near the end, the client died:
--- snip --- err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably needs to be increased --- snip ---
Might be a handle leak or the download client uses up that much handles "by design". Good thing Wine emits this diagnostics now ;-) Client restart, it automatically rechecked downloaded parts and downloaded rest successfully.
At the end, the bootstrapper client will automatically start the full installer which requires .NET (installs assemblies) so you need to have a clean WINEPREFIX with 'winetricks dotnet20' prepared _before_ running the bootstrap downloader.
Anyway, running these "renamer.exe" and "kicker.exe" tools (.NET assemblies, obfuscated) doesn't show the hangs nor reported "err:seh:setup_exception_record nested exception on signal stack" messages.
Can you retest with newer Wine version? If still present please post your Linux distro specs (could also be a kernel bug).
Regards
