[Wine]To leave windows behind

My goal is to say goodbye to Windows and you all are doing a great job
towards this end.  However, I have two sticking points that I could use
some help with.
1. Internet Explorer installed and comes up well.  However, I want to
use the msn Investment Portfolio which has a set of secondary menus down
the side and each of these have tertiary menus which I want to access.
These tertiary menus are not available under wine, i.e clicking on the
secondary menu does not bring up the tertiary menu.

2. I want to use Fidelity's Active Trader.  The install aborts with the
following error.
Backtrace:

  10 0x004774c0 4\uffffA in _ins5576._mp (0x00000000)

The Active Trader Log gives:
Starting installation of Fidelity Active Trader Pro...
Error: A system exception occurred. exception 80000100 at 0x0040e0c3

Nether of these problems occur on windows.

Any help or suggestions appreciated.
