When selecting some text in IE4, it usually gets highlighted wrong - it appears
that the text changes color as expected, but the background does not. It's very
noticeable on the WineHQ homepage, where much of the text becomes invisible
when selected, while it should be white on a blue background. This wasn't an
issue back in 1.3.6, so I did a regression test:

Reverting the patch fixed the problem. I used these steps to install and test:

1. Change the reported Windows version to NT4
2. Add native,bultin overrides for the following:
advpack, iexplore.exe, jscript, mshtml, shdocvw
3. Remove the Z: drive (not required, but prevents the installer from scanning
the entire file system for Windows browsers to install a plugin to)
4. Run 'wine iexplore -unregserver'
5. Remove some files (replace $HOME/.wine if needed):
rm -f $HOME/.wine/drive_c/{Program\ Files/Internet\
Explorer/iexplore.exe,windows/system32/{advpack.dll,inetcpl.cpl,mshtml.dll,schannel.dll,shdocvw.dll}}
6. Copy the self-extractor to Wine's C: drive and run it to extract the setup
files
7. Run the IE4SETUP.EXE file from the directory the extractor created
8. Choose no when asked to locate WINDOWS.HLP, and ignore some Java VM
installation errors after the reboot
9. Run IE4 and try selecting some text in the news section of the WineHQ
homepage:
wine 'C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe' http://www.winehq.org
