TechNet HTA test
Xubuntu 14.04 x86_64, AMD Phenom 9550, Wine Staging
Windows Version: Windows XP
Encountered this problem while investigating a workaround for bug #26463
affecting the CD game "18 Wheels Of Steel: Big City Rigs" (includes American
Long Haul, Garbage Truck, and Bus Simulator).
Installed IE6 via winetricks 20161005 and set override for mshta.exe to native.
Executing the installer fails to do anything:
wine reg.exe ADD HKCU\\Software\\Wine\\DllOverrides /v "mshta.exe" /t REG_SZ /d
"native,builtin"
wine C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe /d d:\\ d:\\autorun.exe Launch.hta
I verified the problem with two other tests - a basic "HTA Test" example script
from TechNet (attached) and getdate, a simple date calculator from Rob van der
Woude.

HTA Test loads a window with a button to start the script but running the
script results in an error "TestSub is undefined".
The getdate script generates an error "Object expected".
Tests performed on Wine with IE6 (6.00.2600.0000) and IE6 SP1 (6.0.2800.1106).
Windows Script Host 5.6 and 5.7 used. IE 6 SP1 installed over IE6 (winetricks)
using archive linked in the following post:
http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/157628-we-cant-get-internet-explorer-6-service-pack-1/?do=findComment&comment=1007538
Note that the version of mshta.exe always matches that of Internet Explorer.
Testing other versions of IE6 in Wine is difficult due to the lack of
standalone installers. Full version list:

Both tests work without problems in WinXP (6.0.2600.0000) and WinXP SP3
(6.0.2900.5512).
