HI,

I am using the latest playonlinux version with wine 2.0-stable version. When i try to run playonlinux the window comes up but underneath it says

'playonlinux website is unavailable please check your connection'

When I try to install the 'install menu comes up' but nothing happens,the busy indicator keeps on rotating. 

When I try to install via non-listed program the creation of virtual drives fails giving the error

Did you install Wine first before installing PlayOnLinux?

Also, normally when I do a fresh Linux install and then run PlayOnLinux, it will ask to install xterm.  You might want to give it a try as well.

Wouldn't hurt to install PlayOnLinux again too, just to be sure.
