    shdocvw: Get rid of Mozilla ActiveX control dependency.


Re-installing Steam fixes the problem. But this affects all the applications
that were working with Mozilla ActiveX controls. Here is the few lines from
+mshtml trace:
trace:mshtml:load_gecko ()
trace:mshtml:load_gecko found path L"C:\\PROG~FBU\\MOZC~HTG\\"
err:mshtml:load_gecko Could not load XPCOM: 126

This indicates that new mshtnl tries to load existing version of Gecko but
fails. I think at this point it should ask to download new version and install it.

One more possible fix is:
wine regedit /D
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Classes\CLSID\{1339B54C-3453-11D2-93B9-000000000000}"
