Help! I tried nearly everything I could and still was not able to get IE working with wine 0.9.19. Manual install using App DB, winetools, ies4linux, etc... everything fails, with different problems and error messages of course. It's really frustrating. Is there a way to install IE that actually works ?

I tried installing IE6 using winetools, this failed for some reason. after several attempts i found IEs4linux, which installed IE5 and IE6 for me with no hassle, can i get winetools to recognise this install? because it won't let me install other software at the minute, or could someone give me a hand in getting winetools to work with the original IE6 setup? cheers!

I used the tool wine-config-sidenet from http://sidenet.ddo.jp/winetips/config.html which works great. I installed wine 20041201 as recommended and started wine-config-sidenet setup program and IE6 seemed to run great however, some URLs didn't work for example: www.arkia.co.il. Looking at the FAQ I noticed I should install dcom98.exe. When installing it I got windows popup stating:

Hi I have this problem with wine (0.9.7): I installed IE6 ok with winetools (and also again with sidenet), but the view>encodings menu only contains one entry, 'None'. Any clue on the matter will be appreciated Yonatan Oren

Hello, I installed IE6 with both WineTools and IEs4Linux (under different user accounts). Most of the features work, but IE often hangs. Then I can only kill the process. Has someone got IE6 stable under WINE? If so, which WINE version do I have to use and how shall I configure it? Thanks in advance, Colin Finck

I just red the article on the website about winetools. This is controversy is a non starter in my oppinion. I believe that something like winetools should be included in the wine distribution to begin with. It should be something under the control of the developers themselves and bug reports should be added to fix any problems. Why did it take someone outside of the wine development team to

I'm using Wine 0.9.11~winehq1-1 on Debian Sid. I've been trying to install IE6 and MS Office 2000 for the last few days. As a side note, the only way I managed to install IE6 was through Sidenet. No luck with any other method (reg files, winetools...) Office 2000 installs, but when I try to run the program it says: warn:module:load_dll Failed to load module

Hello everybody, I know there are many HOWTOs out there about installing IE6, but none seem to mention the problem I have. The installation of IE6 doesn't go beyond the window: "Setup was unable to download the required components. Please make sure you are connected to the internet or try to run Setup later again" Trying to set wininet to "native" or "builtin"

For some time I have been using wine plus winetools on Ubuntu Breezy, allowing me to be able to use Internet Explorer on linux. When updating to the newer versions of Wine on either Brreezy or Dapper, I find that internet explorer n longer works. The winetools page shows two files that need to be downloaded wt-config.reg and ie6.reg along with winetools for wine 9.x No where can I find how to

I am trying to make Rhapsody (the Real Networks music service) to run under wine. This guy, AmishGeek, says he got it to work: http://www.amishgeek.com/info/rhapsody But I don't quite understand all his instructions...and I tried sending him an email but his email box was full. I don't understand the parts about installing windows media ( my machine is dual boot XP, Suse 9.3 ). Does

Does IE and Windows Media Player (any version) work with Wine 0.9.10 or the latest CVS version? If so, how to install? I've tried but failed: * With the latest CVS and sidenet-1.9.1, using option "IE6 with WMP6 installation", the IE setup fails with "The download location information is damaged". * With Wine 0.9.10, using the FC4 RPM: The same as above. * If I try

Hi, I am currently running Ubuntu 8.04 with wine 1.0 (upgraded thru update manager). I previously installed wine & winetools using instructions from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=149585. However, when I try to run IE6, this is what the terminal outputs: kenninaz at kenninaz-desktop:~$ wine /home/kenninaz/.wine/c/Program\ Files/Internet\ Explorer/IEXPLORE.EXE

I'm kind of a newbie on the whole Wine deal and I'm close to flipping out on this problem I have, maybe it's happened to someone else (who can share his/her wisdom): - Internet Explorer can't open new windows. Be it javascript, a popup, or even if you click on 'File -> New -> Window' and if you try, it hangs. So it's practically unusable to me since the corporate

I think I used sidenet (not winetools) to install IE. IE and other programs work OK. The PC Study

Hello. I'm looking for a howto to get IE6 installed on Wine 0.9.12. I googled some, but I can't find any *recent* documentation on how to get IE installed with Wine 0.9.12 - I only find outdated information from 2005 or 2003. First, I downloaded ie6setup.exe for 6_sp1 in English from
