Summary: Where’s Waldo installer refuses to run since it can't
                    phone home via WinHttpRequest com object?
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.5
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: winhttp
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

You can download the demo free from
http://www.download-game-demo.com/where-s-waldo-the-fantastic-journey.html

When you run the installer, it asks for your email address, and aborts
complaining that you have to install msxml to continue.

After doing 'winetricks msxml3', you get further; it then complains
that you can't install without a working internet connection.  The log
shows

err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {2087c2f4-2cef-4953-a8ab-66779b670495} not
registered

which seems related; that's the GUID for something called WinHttpRequest
Component.  I think it's part of winhttp 5.

msxml problem still exists, winhttp is fixed. Suggest changing component to
msxml3

No, that should be a separate bug.
