[Wine] Problem on installing MS VM on wine

[L. Rahyen]

	Does msjavx86b3805.exe installs correctly on clean WINE, without ies4linux? 
If it does, please ask ies4linux author for help because in this case it is 
he's fault.
	If it doesn't then this is our fault and you should report bug to 
http://bugs.winehq.org about inability to install msjavx86b3805.exe with 
clean WINE without any native dlls.
	Just a note: some people think that a lot of native overrides in ies4linux 
works better. This is not true! Many Windows programs even cannot work 
because of this broken by ies4linux configuration (why broken? Because of 
low-level incompatibility of some native dlls overrides with built-in core 
dlls). In fact, it is so much broken that even IE itself has a lot of bugs 
and can work only in win98 mode, in win2000 mode it alsmost doesn't work 
(this is very big problem for any modern application or IE plugin which 
depends heavily on IE5/6 and require you to have win2000 or later).
	In other words: if you really need IE right now you can use ies4linux. But 
before reporting problem that something doesn't work (for example 
installation of other application like in your case) please make sure to 
reproduce this with clean WINE and do not mention ies4linux in your bug 
report - this only may confuse WINE developers; ies4linux configuration is 
not supported by WINE team for reasons I mentioned above.
