	First of all try this:

mv ~/.wine{,.backup}
wineprefixcreate

	Then install your application as usually; for example:

wine setup.exe

	Then cd to its installation directory and run it. After that run this:

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks fakeie6 gecko

	Does this work for you?

	If not please report a bug at http://bugs.winehq.org.

	After reporting a bug you may want try ies4linux prefix; just run this 
(please note that use of ies4linux is unsupported because ies4linux use too 
many native overrides; and even if its helps, you should report a bug anyway 
if it wasn't reported in the past already):

export WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6

	Then install your application as usually; for example:

wine setup.exe

	Then cd to its installation directory and run it.

	Please note that after exporting WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6 you need to run 
above commands in the shell with this environment variable otherwise default 
~/.wine will be used instead.
	Alternatively, you can just append WINEPREFIX=~/.ies4linux/ie6 at the 
beginning of each command instead of exporting it.
