wine users - Jul 2001 - Netscape/Mozilla: Windows plugins via Wine?

Many useful Netscape plugins don't come in Linux versions. Is it

If so, how?

Hi,

Anyways, i have an icon on my desktop to Netscape (win32 version) to do 
things like so, sometimes it doesn't work but i have been able to use flash 
and many other stuff.

Cheers
