Apparently it's been a known issue for a while, but I can't find a bug for it.
Easy to reproduce: $ rm -rf .wine $ winetricks -q ie7 $ wine iexplore.exe
CRASH!
workarounds: A) $ cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files $ wine iexplore.exe
B) $ wine "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
C) $ winetricks -q comctl32 $ WINEDLLOVERRIDES="comctl32=n" wine iexplore.exe
