Bug ID: 46114 Summary: Internet Explorer 3 refuses to install (detects IE 4) Product: Wine Version: 3.19 Hardware: x86-64 URL: http://www.oldversion.com/windows/internet-explorer-3- 02-win95 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: jhansonxi@gmail.com Distribution: Ubuntu
Note: Let's skip the drama about "why" I need IE3 - I don't. It's just an odd problem I encountered while trying to test an old bug that may be related to another bug I encountered while looking for a test case for yet another bug.
MD5: ef64ec92f811409ca81f1845fab773eb msie302w95.exe
The installer starts without problems but once it begins installing it aborts with the message:
"Internet Explorer 3.0 cannot be installed on a system that has Internet Explorer 4.0 installed"
The installer contents can be extracted with:
msie302w95.exe /C /T:"c:\ie3"
The source of the message is infinst2.exe (occurs immediately when launched) but I can't determine what it's being triggered by. I've tried overrides, deleting most of the files in WINEPREFIX, and deleting most of the keys in the registry. At this point I can't tell if it's a bug or not. I can't see anything in the debug output that indicates what file or registry keys it's looking at. Reading through the install scripts doesn't yield any obvious clues.

--- Comment #2 from Anastasius Focht focht@gmx.net --- Hello folks,
confirming. The installer targets Win9x-based systems and the check is simply broken/non-applicable on modern Windows NT based OS.

The brain damage:

Again, this can't work on native Windows NT based systems.
You can work around in Wine by setting an app specific dll override for the sub-installer to prevent loading of 'shell32.dll' at all. It will then successfully install the old IE 3.x crap. It needs to be app specific override to ensure that Wine builtin/main app processes can still load 'shell32.dll' (otherwise they would break earlier).
