I can follow this nice howto if someone thinks there's a chance of it succeeding: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_Internet_Explorer_6_SP1#Internet_Explorer_6_SP_1_-_raw_install_.28wine_0.9.5_-_9.8-r1.29 ..then I can report back. Should I bother? I have already tried ies4linux and it failed to install a working ie6. Les
