2008/5/30 sol <wineforum-user@xxxxxxxxxx>: > By your ridiculous logic, half the applications you use in Windows are not using the DLLs legally since they're using them without the rest of Windows. If an application uses a Windows DLL, that is fine as those DLLs should be available on the Windows OS that you are running that application on. If the application distributes one or more DLLs, it can only do so for the ones that are redistributable provided that it makes use of them. This includes msxml 3-6, the Visual C/C++ runtime libraries, GDIPlus and the DirectX DLLs. It is possible to get urlmon, mshtml, shlwapi and some others by installing Internet Explorer, as that distributes and installs those DLLs. dimesio has noted that comctl32 (version 5 from IE5, so it does not include any of the theming updates, nor any of the XP/Vista control updates) is available as a separate install, and is also available with Internet Explorer 5 (not sure about IE6 or 7). - Reece
