If you were already booted to Linux, why tamper with the Windows partition at all? You might just as well have accessed the 'net with Linux.

If the software was blocking at a lower level on the network stack and not just in the browser, then the answer is probably multiplayer games. Presumably OP wasn't doing this just last year, but in the late 90s and early 2000s when Linux gaming wasn't a real thing yet.
