Aww... yes, I'm seeing that too According the the wine application database (http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=469) some settings help it get a bit further, but it reports: "Microsoft Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." (With a "debug" button)

Hitting "debug" crashes as an unimplemented function in urlmon is called - that seems weird, as it should be using the native version of urlmon... oh well I guess you need to use ies4linux to get a working IE for now. I had it installed as some program thought it needed it - hadn't noticed it didn't actually run Jeffrey Sabarese <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi Joris, Thanks again for corresponding with me on this. (i realize there's much text here, so please take you time, get to it when you can...) for the link, just think: "this dude is such a 'NOVICE'!! he really should take more 'NOTES'!!!..." get it? novicenotes? hee hee then a text search (upper right) of WinE ie will get you there, undoubtedly. but that's not why i am writing. i wanted to let you know that the "genuine" installer, http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/downloads/critical/ie6sp1/default.mspx did not succeed in placing a useable software on the system. it seemed to "install" just fine, but launching it: [ wine '/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe' ] brings up a window w/ nothing but "white space". as if it "wants" to launch, but doesn't quite get there. when ie was installed via "ies4linux", i DID experience a similar activity, but only if i launched IE via WinE application link, for example, if i linked to IE from... say EditPlus, as an external browser, i would get the same: a window w/ nothing in it-- as you might see after an app has crashed, the window's still up, but no screen-updating, so you get a "frozen" image, or white screen. so, the only time i've ever seen it look "right" myself was using the "non-standard" ies4linux launcher, as i've illustrated specifically, here some time ago (showing the 3 versions of IE in that package): http://digisquirrel.blogspot.com/2006/08/fiddlers-three.html please understand that i want to install it the proper, WinE developers' recommended way, so this is why i continue to research the subject (and continue to probably annoy you, for which i apologize). What might i be doing wrong? i noticed in my blog entry-- (a different one this time) http://novicenotes.com/2006/08/04/ie_on_linux_wine/ where i discussed DCOM98.EXE . i haven't actively installed that component this time-- so unless it came down w/ the MS installer, might i need to have that installed as well? any other feedback you have on this subject is appreciated. perhaps you have URL w/ the preferred, WinE dev's method? (assuming it's "okay [legal]" to do the MS installer) thank you for your generous help!! --Jeff Sabarese PS. I apologize if it's been an invasion-- i thought i mailed to the "list" last time, but it looks like i sent just to you last time? (and i know i sent only to you this time, so if you wish to forward to the list, please do so. i have a real problem w/ being not-concise [as you've noticed, i'm sure], so i tried to spare the other members for now. sorry i can't seem to shorten things more than i do).
