I was compelled to downgrade to wine 0.9.33. The story is as follow; After version 0.9.43 released I upgraded it on Ubuntu repo. Immediately thereafter I found the top tools-bar of IE disappeared. Then I force-downgrade Wine back to version 0.9.33 and reinstalled IE. Now I get its top tools-bar back. I'm not alone sufferring this problem. Folks on IEs4Linux forum also encountered the same problem. Report of bug has been made to Wine by them. I'm prepared to try again upgrading Wine to version 0.9.43 on Ubuntu repo to see what will happen. Before start any advise or precaution? TIA. - snip - > > Could you please explain in more detail?

Yes, I'll test your script after successfully installing msjava from clean WINEPREFIX to WINEPREFIX with IE and let you know its result afterwards. > 2) You can turn off temporaly all native overrides in order to > install msjava > within ies4linux's WINEPREFIX (this assumes installation works fine > with > clean WINE).
