wine users - Jul 2008 - Firewall exception list

Hi guys,
I tried to install CoDeSys on my Wine (1.0.0-1ubuntu4~hardy1) on Ubuntu 8.04.
The Microsoft .DotNet Framework 2.0 is installed by using winetricks.

But the installer of CoDeSys stops at 90% with an error:

"There was an error at adding a program to the firewall exception list:
"C:\Programme\3S CoDeSys\CoDeSys\Common\CoDeSys.exe"

Google told me, programs can write their entry into the registry on the firewall
exceptions list exactly here:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPoli
cy\StandardProfile\AuthorizedApplications\List

But in the registry there is no such entry.
My idea was to create a "fake list" in the registry but that didnt
work.

So, are there any suggestions?

This sort of programs (software firewalls) won't work on Wine. Don't
waste your time trying to install one.

Can you tell me how to disable?
If you mean ufw, I allready disabled it. And iptables is as far as I know no
firewall.

If it is not setup then it is disabled. However weather it is disabled
or not this will not help you trying to setup the windows firewall in
wine. That part will not work since wine does not contain the code
necessary for the windows firewall service.

I see that there is no longer an exception for the "eo" culture,
however as I understand, this doesn't make the installer work better. As it
was said, whether you have a Linux firewall or not is not checked by Wine. The
problem is probably that Wine is missing some APIs. Usually, to add an
exception, the apps query for the class {304ce942-6e39-40d8-943a-b913c40c9cd4}
(CLSID_NetFwMgr),  but I don't see it in this log.

Anyhow, this looks like a more complicated bug. Maybe you should open a bug
report for it on http://bugs.winehq.org so that it someone has time he will look
into it.
