--- Comment #7 from lkboss@gmail.com 2010-02-14 01:26:07 --- Probably not, but you could try using a native wininet (notice it tries to connect 7 times but the wine wininet is currently stubbed) and/or a native winsock. I'm not particularly sure if either or both will do the trick, but it can't hurt trying.
