James,
   Thanks. If that's what is happening then it's interesting. The ONLY
reason I'm  struggling to install IE is because the program I Want to
run, Medved QuoteTracker, available here:

http://www.quotetracker.com/index_nn.asp

installs successfully under wine-0.9.15 and actually runs, but then
exits gracefully telling me that IE is not installed and that it needs
it for web access and help files. Apparently the built in Wine version
is not able to ideantify itself to this program?


I think you're going to have to install DCOM to run IE.  dl a copy of
dcom98.exe from msdn and do the following:

$ winecfg (set version to win98)
$ WINEDLLOVERRIDES=ole32=n wine DCOM98.exe (now dcom is installed)
$ WINEDLLOVERRIDES=iexplore.exe,shdocvw,urlmon,mshtml,ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n
wine iexplore.exe

and report back if that works.  Also, can you file a bug report for
the winecfg crash?  Steps needed to reproduce the crash would be
great.  It's crashing because of a stack corruption bug that's been
revealed by a patch Alexandre recently committed (note that the patch
is not the bug itself).  Have you tried running the app that required
IE yet?  If it's just looking for signs of its presence, you probably
don't need to be able to run IE itself.  Try it out again, and if it
still reports IE as missing, file a bug report and we'll look into it.
