The bot is connected to the webserver via http calls. These are just like the normal website navigations (the ones you perform in your browser), save for the fact that they perform silently, without involving Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari, or any. The http is the MAIN CONNECTION. Without http connection you cannot use the bot. This connection is tested at startup.
The wiki/screenshot connection serves secondary purposes such as screenshot upload and wikiprice. You can perfectly use the bot without this connection, but you will lose a couple of (minor) functionalities.
If you are experiencing problems with the connection, such as the inability to appear on wikiprice, please check the firewalls on your pc and shut them down. Same holds for the firewalls on the router, if any. If you don't want to shut them down, then put the executable files in the main folder of the bot (such as LauncherGUI.exe or curl.exe) in the firewall's whitelist. Finally, pay attention that Windows has also a default firewall, and that you may eventually need to tweak it.
If you use Vista or 7, you also need to enable the executable files as administrator: right click on them and choose this option. Do this for all the exe files in the main folder of the bot
