--- Comment #3 from winetest@luukku.com --- Ok I got the same crash location as you. I am not sure if I used winetricks -q ie8 for the launcher. I didnt notice before that the gui was updating files. The font isnt so visible. It seems that it once succees and wants to restart the client and it crashes later. vcrun2008 didnt seem to help as suggested in the other bug report.
I made another run. Now with vcrun2008 installed before hand and I didnt use winetricks -q ie8 and used the steps you mentioned. I get the same crash.
I think this bug is actually a dupe of bug 33981. The issue seems to be the same, but the workaround just don't work anymore.
