[Bug 24242] New: MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0 can't GET

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24242

Summary: MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0 can't GET
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: msxml3
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

In http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=9524 a user asked why
his simple download code failed:

-------- snip ----------
Simple Delphi code.

Uses comobj;

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var xmlhttp: variant;
begin
xmlhttp:=createoleobject('MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0');
xmlhttp.open('GET', edit1.text, true);
xmlhttp.send();
while (xmlhttp.readystate<>4) do application.processmessages;
memo1.lines.add(xmlhttp.responsetext);
end;

Here is zipped exe: http://netikka.net/dev/ole.zip

Click ok -> OLE error 800401F3 (Ubuntu 10.04, Wine 1.31) 
-------- snip ----------

The app he links to is a very simple one that uses an msxml3
interface to download a file when you click the button.
Doing that fails on wine, and the log shows

err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {f5078f35-c551-11d3-89b9-0000f81fe221}
could be created for context 0x5

'winetricks msxml3' works around it, and gets you to the next problem.
