Perhaps try adding the following line to the dll overrides section in user.reg:
"advpack" = "native, builtin"
I did that already, it is necessary to install IE since the switch to the WineCfg-tool, without the native dll IE won't install, because it is not able to connect to the internet to download/check components. Err, or whatever MS is doing there ;~ However IE-Installation works with any "recent" Config-File-WINE (and Sidenet-configuration) without a native advpack.
I've not figured out yet which patch exactly "did it".
