Thanks for the tip. Had no idea. It still creeps me out to use ie, but 
at least all the virii it gathers won't run here. ;-)

So far, though, the program has failed to run on two different machines 
- the BLAG 30k (fc3) one that connects to adelphia for mail AND the 
ubuntu feisty one that I've been using ssh -X on to read my mail.

On the BLAG box it says this:
...
Installing IE 6
   Initializing
   Creating Wine Prefix
   Extracting CAB files
lib/functions.sh: line 69: 
/home/qfwfq/download/ies4linux/ies4linux-2.0.5/cabextract.log: No such 
file or directory
cat: /home/qfwfq/download/ies4linux/ies4linux-2.0.5/cabextract.log: No 
such file or directory
rm: cannot remove 
`/home/qfwfq/download/ies4linux/ies4linux-2.0.5/cabextract.log': No such 
file or directory
An error occured when trying to cabextract some files.

On the feisty box it says this:

I'm new to cabextract, also, so I don't really know what's going on here.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
S.
