The current official Winamp FLAC plugin does not support streaming.
There are a couple of other options:

1. you could try the unofficial version, which is a little ahead
of the current source code, (improvements by X-fixer)

   http://x-fixer.narod.ru/download/in_flac.zip

   ( read about it at http://x-fixer.narod.ru/progs/ )

2. I believe fb2k (a new player by one of the original winamp
   guys) supports FLAC streaming:

3. you could look into some other players; see
   http://flac.sourceforge.net/download.html at the end for
   some links to some third-party plugins for other players.
