--- Comment #5 from Louis Lenders xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2010-09-11 04:17:14 CDT --- Created an attachment (id=30698) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=30698) +winhttp log
I used the exe from the downloadlink you provided:
sha1sum vc_web.exe c2d61a5424aa474a169e59199aa2158a858833f6 vc_web.exe
It fails for me with the attached (+winhttp) log. (windows version set to default WinXP)
