https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37816 --- Comment #2 from Murray <iamreggieman(a)gmail.com> --- The source may be accessable in China. I assumed it wasn't because a Chinese person came into the IRC channel #winehq the other day saying so. They were getting 'not found' and 'address is invalid' errors. He ended up using this source: http://www.westernpacificresearch.com/downloads/msie60.exe but it is a bit risky having to search for other third-party sources. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
