You should have repeated the important part from the other thread:

Wine has its own implementation of IE6 and directx9, which may or may not work with this app, but you'll definitely have to install .NET and J#. Winetricks has both: dotnet20 and vjrun20. Dotnet20 has to be installed first. Install those, then test the app. If it doesn't work, post terminal output.
