------- Additional Comments From vitaliy@kievinfo.com 2006-07-02 07:43 ------- Sorry but you need to try with without IE install. It overrides lots of Wine's dlls which makes it hard to find the bug. You could just move ~/.wine to ~/.wine-ie and install python separately. Also please upgrade to 0.9.7 and try again. Numner of related bugs have been fixed in it.
And still use IE : WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-ie wine 'c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore'
