Not sure about over the net, but my brother and I have got Hamachi working for LAN multiplayer.
Testing Systems: Win 7 64bit and Vista 64bit.
Steps:
1) Install Hamachi on all LAN systems.
2) Create a server in Hamachi and write down server ip.
3) Connect to other person's Hamachi server by going to Network -> Join existing Network in Hamachi (put the host's server name in for Server ID).
5) Launch I76 and host an Internet game and create a new server using whichever Hamachi server's IP address you want, just remember it needs to be the same for the host and for anyone joining.
6) Joining party needs to connect to the same IP address.
Here is the tricky part...
7) The game may take awhile to recognize that there is a game on the server, wait approximately 1 full minute.
The game will show up and when you try to join it will tell you 'Game info cannot be obtained' or something similar.
Wait another full minute and you should get an in game error message that says 'Game server not responding' or something similar.
8) Now join the game and it should load!
