Summary: Internet Explorer 6 does not install Product: Wine Version: CVS Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: wine-misc AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.com ReportedBy: mcbridematt@hotmail.com
I installed Windows Media Player 6 (well, it's always safer to use Older Apps which have been in the "try again" & "stubbed functions" & "test me please" bins before new ones which may have new previously unknown functions in them).
I attempted to open an .WMV file, and it tried downloading a codec. It needed IE so I downloaded the installer of IE6, but came out saying I need Win98, Win2K, WinNT, or WinME to install it. I set the imitate option to all of them repeatedly but none of them worked.
Debug output attached
