[Wine] GE centricity viewer??

	I picked up some data from the nearest hospital to take to the 
specialist at the next one, with whom I had an appt.; it came on a CD, 
which is marked "DICOM Volume with GE Centricity Viewer."

	When I put the CD into a drive, Fedora 11 auto-mounts it, and 
fails to find the autorun.exe, which is right there in plain sight. (F11 
knows it exists, and asks whether to run it, and then fails. This is 
currently normal for most M$-intended media.)

	So I open the file, find autorun.exe myself, and right-click on 
it. The first option I get is to open it with Wine, as expected. When I 
accept that, I get a huge popup, which I can't seem to copy, saying only 
that it needs "scripting support" and urging me, obscenely enough, to get 
M$'s so-called browser 5.0 or higher. (I take all mention of that 
abominable browser as an obscenity.)

	I thought that browser, or a cleaner clone of it, of level at 
least 7, was an integral part of Wine.

	Worst of all, I could swear I've brought home similar media 
before, and viewed them, or the parts I wanted, with earlier releases of 
wine under earlier releases of Fedora ...

I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.
