Hi L. Rahyen,


Tks for your advice.

I have ies4linux, IE6, IE5.5, IE5, Sun j2re-1_4_2_12-windows-i586-p,
etc.running on Ubuntu 7.04 (desktop) platform.  They are working w/o
much issue.  A public site here refuses Sun java only allowing MS VM. 
IE6 crashes on visiting this site if with Sun java enabled.  For such a
reason I am compelled to install "msjavx86b3805.exe".  

As user I was unable to install both "msjavx86b3805.exe" then
"MSJavWU_8073687b82d41db93f4c2a04af2b34d.exe".  At end of installation 
Wine-dbg> popup waiting for input.

If "su" as root I can install "msjavx86b3805.exe" and upgrade to
"MSJavWU_8073687b82d41db93f4c2a04af2b34d.exe".  However I can't find MS
VM on IE6;

Tools -> Internet properties -> Advanced
They can't be found there.


I tried several times without a breakthrough.
