Instead, it should just be a couple of checkboxes for optional things like dcom98 and IE6, shouldn't it?
I think this is not enough. After you installed IE6 how do you want to disable it? Many apps are looking directly for it. They will behave different in that case. Or did I misunderstood?
Once you've installed IE6 or dcom98, they're there for good. I just want to make sure you don't encourage users to install them.
One other thing we need is an easy way to defeat those checks for particular versions of IE. For instance, many apps check one registry key, and some apps check for one particular DLL (it can be zero size, even!). Wine itself should probably come with a shell script that creates these, and wineconf and/or your tool should provide an easy way to run it... - Dan
