This is working in Wine 0.9.48. Installator of IE6 says just after start, that newer version of IE is installed, and doesen't allow to follow installation. This is caused by too hi version of IE in registry (Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Version) - the version in Wine is 6.0.2900.2180 while the version of IE6SP2 is 6.0.2800.1106 (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_explorer_6#Extended for information about versions). If the version is set lower, than 6.0.2800.1106, the installator starts normally. (I hope, that no regression testing is needed as the cause is clear)
