I've tried installing wininet dotnet20 ie6 into a 32-bit wineprefix and
I can't authenticate with my Google account. Instead, I get a window
that shows:

You must be connected to the Internet to use this feature.
Try again
Close this window

This site says to copy over some GoogleOAuth registry key settings from a 
regular windows based installation of Picasa 3.9 but that would mean having to 
install your Picasa on windows first, before getting it working on Linux.

Something I notice is logging into Google with wine IE doesn't work very well 
at all.. but it works awesome with Mozilla Firefox! If Picasa3.9 could use 
Firefox as the authentication mechanism instead of IE, I think that would fix 
the issue.
