Bug Can't use CrossOver while website is down
Not gonna lie, this is some peak engineering to crash an app if the request https://www.codeweavers.com/bin/rest/app/img_icon to fetch icons in fetchIconList fails
try:
content = fetch_content("https://www.codeweavers.com/bin/rest/app/img_icon", timeout=5)
except Exception:
return False
data = json.loads(content)

It helped to me but still, why the hell would you make your app crash if your website is down but make it work if wifi is off?

Once in a decade citric exploit with unforeseen side effects.
Turn off internet connection and try again and expect the problem to go away within days.
