[Bug 5625] Wine does not handle internet proxy settings conveniently

Sadly, starting a new gnome session does not set
the variable everywhere.  It's still only set
in the special Gnome Terminal launcher,
not in launchers you create yourself (or that
Wine creates), I think.  We should probably verify
that when one properly installs a wininet app,
starting it from the Applications menu
gets the proxy settings right.

I realize that wine's iexplore doesn't use wininet;
we still have to fix it to obey the proxy settings.
