IE running on Wine, but it taking CPU resource 100%

Post by arshadkkin »

Hi all,

I installed latest wine in CentOS5.2 . When opening IE6.0 in that machine, CPU usage is 100%, and after the system Hang.

Please support me...

Wine doesn't support native IE6. IIRC, there was a patch in Wine that
broke that, in kernel32. But since it didn't break any other
application, it was never fixed.

That's probably the patch referred to in this AppDB comment: http://appdb.winehq.org/commentview.php ... adId=37603
