Why on earth would you ever want to do that? Some > researhc project maybe? Or do you need some Flash/ActiveX thingy? If you have nothing useful to say then say nothing. Users write to wine-users for help and not for obvious advice "use native alternative if you can". This is only useful advice if Windows application doesn't work within Wine and you offer better alternative instead. But Firefox does, and works almost perfectly. So if there is need in Windows-specific options (Windows-only plugins, etc.) why not to use Windows Firefox? Don't think that I very like using Windows apps. Personally I preffer konqueror and use native alternatives where possible but I understand that some users like Firefox with some Windows-only options which are all available under Wine. This is Wine project for - to give the ability of using Windows-only options and programs to users that don't use or havn't Windows OS. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
