[Bug 16294] New: Activeworlds client 4.2 doesn't think IE is installed

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16294

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: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

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.

This breaks the help within the app (on the left pane), so
it's more than just cosmetic.

I don't get that error message, but help doesn't work in
wine-1.7.10-241-g6bd6193.

I made a test account, if anyone wants to use it:
user: winetest
pass: Winetest1

Hello folks,

resolving 'fixed' since Austin's comment #4 indicates it went past the problem
reported initially.
