When you use bridged networking there is no problem at all, but this is not the setup I prefer. What else could I do? I disabled the Windows firewall and Windows Defender service but that didn’t work at all. I reinstalled vmware server, but this didn’t help either.

Finally I found the solution! I’m using Avira Antivir anti virus software. There was a update lately and since then the “web guard” module is causing this problem! If I disable the webguard module, I can use wget and anything else as usual and it’s working nice again.

I hope to safe some people from getting mad for hours with this post.

What you need

1. Get A Chinese Name

You can get one here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_name or just google around

Ask a chinese friend or maybe google may help…

You need Internet Explorer with javascript turned on to complete the registration. Furthermore you need support for asian languages installed.
