By "disappointing" I meant that apparently at some point Flash plugin worked,
comment http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15092#c21 already contains
a lot of results of investigation/attempts on Flash functionality in built-in
iexplore, and it's sad that there was no progress since then, and that one
may expect that Flash is very widely used, and supposed to be at least
actively worked on. Of course, I understand priorities and such, but posting
a comment explaining that and updating status doesn't take too much time.

Did you test it with recent versions of gecko+iexplore? Do you have some
suggestions/instructions how to install and use NPAPI version of Flash
with built-in iexplore? (So that I don't waste time doing it wrong if you
know how to do/test it properly).
