Summary: Activeworlds client 4.2 doesn't think IE is installed Product: Wine Version: 1.1.9 Platform: Other URL: http://activeworlds.com/products/download.asp OS/Version: other Status: NEW Keywords: download Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: shdocvw AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: dank@kegel.com
Do "winetricks mfc42 wininet" to work around bug 16292, then launch the app. It puts up the first dialog, then an alert saying "Unable to load web browser! This feature requires that Microsoft's Internet Explorer 3.0 or later be installed on your system..."
One sees fixme:shdocvw:ViewObject_SetAdvise (0xe90c50)->(1 00000000 0xe907fc) right before the problem. I'll attach a +relay log.
You can work around this with "winetricks ie6", which installs the real ie6.
