Workaround using native mshta.exe from IE8:

winetricks -q ie8
wine reg.exe ADD HKCU\\Software\\Wine\\DllOverrides /v "mshta.exe" /t REG_SZ /d
"native,builtin"

Tested with 18 Wheels Of Steel: Big City Rigs (includes American Long Haul,
Garbage Truck, and Bus Simulator) on Wine Staging 2.0-RC1.  Xubuntu 14.04
x86_64.


Assuming CD is mapped to d: in Wine, the CD autorun launcher can be started
using the following command.  Not strictly necessary since setup.exe can be
started directly on the CD.

wine C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe /d d:\\ d:\\autorun.exe Launch.hta


IE 6 doesn't work at all (bug #42086).
IE 7 works for the launcher window but is ugly (bug #42087).  It doesn't work
for game *.desktop (*.lnk) files (play.hta).
