wine users - Apr 2007 - Internet Explorer 4.0 Required

I am trying to install a Windows program and it tells me that at least IE
4.0 is required.  How do I get around this?
Thank you

It just needs certain DLLS not the whole program... you'll need to find 
out which ones it wants and get them into WINE.

Kind regards,

Wine has a built-in implementation of most of IE,
so you usually don't *really* need IE.  All you
need to do is set a registry entry   The easiest way to do this
is (sadly) to open a terminal window and give the commands
  wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
  sh winetricks fakeie6
That should let most applications install.

Eventually, Wine's built-in IE will get good enough
that Wine will set this registry key by default.
