Using winetricks to install gecko and gdiplus allows the program to get to the "Starting up" window. At this point it receives a "Cannot connect to server" message. (The server is fine).
Could this have anything to do with SSL? It's at this point that the program would attempt to open an SSL/TLS socket.
Wireshark shows an "encrypted alert". Seems that the server doesn't trust the client. I have tried native versions of the crypt*.dll files but I'm hunting in the dark here.
Does 'winetricks wininet' help?
