problem installing my 1st program (messenger) with wine...

[smoking81]

hello everybody!
I installed wine for the first time and wanted to try how it works by installing MS messenger. I experienced the problem shown here: http://wiki.winehq.org/PreloaderPageZeroProblem and tried to solve as described in this guide..
Then i tried again to type in the console $ wine WLinstaller.exe and i got just what follows:

Code: Select all

fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x110000 1 (nil) 0
fixme:heap:HeapSetInformation 0x110000 0 0x32fe6c 4

fixme:mshtml:PersistStreamInit_InitNew (0x135178)
fixme:advapi:CheckTokenMembership ((nil) 0x12b5bd0 0x32fddc) stub!

is there some problem with messenger and wine or the problem is just me?

Thanks for your kind help!
bye

You don't say which version of Messenger you tried, but according to the AppDB only version 7.0 seems remotely usable: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... on&iId=127 and even that has several bug reports associated with it.
