Has Maverick been released for general use?

There was a thread on Garena problems, and it would be a good idea to visit the Applications Database to see what, if anything, can be done to fix problems with this program.

Are you using winetricks to install IE7?

This may be the source of the problem.  There have been reports (here and elsewhere) with this kernel release that affect more than just Wine.  The consensous is to wait on 2.6.36.  Since I don't run this kernel I cannot confirm those reports.  This is just what I've read on several mailing lists.

Again, it would be 'nice' to see a log file from when these programs break.  Can you capture one and post it to a site like pastebin.com?  (http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log has instructions on how to capture a log file.)

Thank you.
