Hi! Today we've found that winebrowser gets invalid URL consisting of many question marks instead of correct URL, in at least two cases: 1) Attempt to buy a game in Steam (yes, we are regularly doing that) 2) Trying to buy a program called CPT-Master from 3am systems, free demo which shows the problem when "Buy now" button is pressed in its welcome screen, can be downloaded at http://www.3amsystems.com/products/CPT-Master.exe
The following commit has been identified as making the regression:

It really looks related to the problem which I'm reporting :-). BTW, my system is NOT running in Unicode. Maybe is it related ? I hope it is not yet mandatory. I'm using iso-8859-2 encoding, which works much better in my normal working environment.
Please do your best to fix it before 1.0, I feel it really bad and I think that many programs may be affected by it.
Should I submit a bug too ?
With regards, Pavel Troller
