I'm having a problem with these posts delition by Ken Sharp. I do not see anything wrong there. 'wine start file.msi' is _the_ correct way to "run" msi files (that's what happenes when you double click). Even if there was something wrong, removing post is a bad thing to do. Please just explain in replay why it's wrong. Or just ignore it. Vitaliy.
