Hello,

adjusting download link (old one pointed to newer X4 version).

The installer itself doesn't need any native overrides.
Unfortunately I don't have a serial/activation key to test with if the bug is
still present.

'winetricks -q ie7' allows to show GUI, albeit there is a second, empty top
level window, covering/blocking the installer GUI.
If you close that window it reappears at second time, closing it again will
terminate the launcher as well.

If 'winetricks -q msxml3' is applied after, the empty top level window is gone
and the registration works.
If 'msxml3' native override is disabled again after winetricks, the installer
still works fine.

After hours of tinkering with registry hives I finally found that Internet
Explorer somehow expects XML Script Engine registration data (which Wine
doesn't provide).
The import of following registry snippet allows to use builtin msxml, reducing
native dependencies further:
