------- Additional Comments From johnlumby@hotmail.com 2005-11-10 13:21 ------- Thanks for asking. I have tried wine-20050930 but unfortunately it seems to be worse. The quiktax application does start up and ask its questions about activation but then dies with some different failure:
wine: Unhandled exception (thread 0009), starting debugger... Usage: winedbg [--command cmd|--auto] [--gdb [--no-start] [--with-xterm]] cmdline
Also, I then discovered that another application that worked fine on 20040309 now also fails on 20050930: Internet Explorer 6 It dies with similar failure as for Quiktax. I had originally installed IE6 following instructions in "Franks Corner", which has now disappeared (or I can't find it). I assume there must be some winehq-recommended way to get IE6 working? And also, before quiktax died, it complained about needing to download some ActiveX control but being unable to - if you have any advice on that, that would also be appreciated. Can you please advise me on that and then I'll try again.
John
