           Summary: iexplore commandline args cause failure
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS/GIT
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-shdocvw
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: dank at kegel.com


Picasa uses the -nohome option to iexplore sometimes
(e.g. if you do About / Help and it can't find your
native browser?), and our iexplore just doesn't handle that yet;
instead of skipping the options, it tries to use them
as URLs, causing a confusing blank screen for users and no error
message.

There's lots of evidence for people using these options
in the wild (e.g. http://www.vim.org/tips/tip.php?tip_id=394 )
and they're even documented, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q178058/
