Short story:
SSL is often cumbersome to get through wine.
So don't rely on the SSL capabilities of wine:
Instead use a Miranda plugin which provides SSL functionality.
grantd compiled one based on the PolarSSL library (polarssl.org/). You can Download it from the Miranda forums. (See his posting I linked at the beginning of this comment!)
Long story (How someone helped him get the job done):
Read through this thread: forums.miranda-im.org/showthread.php?24132-Miranda-IM-Linux-Yahoo-Error
They actually talk about Yahoo, but an SSL issue is an SSL issue whether it is used by Yahoo or ICQ or anything else.

However I (personally) won't use this DLL, because I don't trust it. If it can be compiled under wine, then it'll be more attractive solution. Or if someone digitally signs it.
