Installed using WineTricks VERSION=20091125 (IE7).
Downgraded to wine version to 1.1.31 to install jre-6u17-windows-i586.exe.
This is due to a regression in wine 1.1.32 - 1.1.34.
After install upgrade back to 1.1.34.
Added real XP Dll's to system32:
msctf.dll,msimtf.dll,oelpro32.dll,uxtheme.dll,xmllite.dll
Used winetricks to install:
comctl32,comctl32,corefonts,fontfix, gdiplus,msls31,msxml3-4 & 6,riched20 & 30,tahoma,allfonts
Used winecfg to set DLL Overrides:
"browseui"="native,builtin"
"comctl32"="builtin"
"crypt32"="native,builtin"
"dispex"="native,builtin"
"gdiplus"="native"
"hhctrl.ocx"="native,builtin"
"hlink"="native,builtin"
"iernonce"="native,builtin"
"iexplore.exe"="native,builtin"
"itircl"="native,builtin"
"itss"="native,builtin"
"jscript"="native,builtin"
"mlang"="native,builtin"
"mshtml"="native,builtin"
"mshtml3"="native,builtin"
"msimtf"="native,builtin"
"msxml3"="native,builtin"
"olepro32"="native,builtin"
"riched20"="native,builtin"
"riched32"="native,builtin"
"scrobj"="native,builtin"
"shdoclc"="native,builtin"
"shdocvw"="native,builtin"
"shlwapi"="native,builtin"
"updspapi"="builtin"
"url"="native,builtin"
"urlmon"="native,builtin"
"usp10"="native,builtin"
"uxtheme"="native,builtin"
"wininet"="builtin"
"wintrust"="native,builtin"
"xmllite"="native,builtin"
This made IE7 much more functional.
Regression?

I haven't fully tested every version of Wine that I need to..
Wine 1.1.21 and earlier seem to work ok in IE7
Wine 1.1.24 through 1.1.26 (current) do NOT anymore (I have not tested 22 or 23). There are pages that have stopped working. I have not figure out what content on a website is causing this, but one such website that works in 1.1.21 that no longer works is www.champions-online.com
wine 1.1.15

1.1.15 boasts being able to run ie7 (see latest wwn #356), and indeed it installs and runs, but requires a little tweaking.
First, I set global dlloverrides for mshtml, shlwapi, shdocvw, wininet, urlmon and actxprxy dlls to "native,builtin". Since actxprxy is not installed automatically, I copied it over from my windows xp partition to my wine install. (It makes music.yahoo.com happier.)
I also installed msxml vers. 3 & 4. (Makes yahoo and windows update happier, tho' windows update is still not functional - see below about active x.) Be sure to set msxml to "native,builtin" also.
Initially tabs weren't working, nor was I getting all of my toolbars. The first time I installed ie7, I did not pick installing updates and the Malicious Software Removal Tool. The 2nd time, I did leave that checkbox checked, and I got the tabs and toolbars to work.
My main problems now is I have no popups, flash, or anything requiring active x. When I get to any web page that tries to install an active x control, after clicking thru a few popup messages, I get the information bar (under the toolbars) complaining that my security settings don't allow running the control. When I go into Internet Options -> Security, and try to set the security level to Medium, or try to pick Custom, and relax all the active x options, it still doesn't work.
All in all, at least navigation works, and 1.1.15 shows definite improvement.
Btw, for those interested in that Cryptographic Service not running error message box, you probably have too many native overrides. According to support.microsoft.com/kb/822798/ , the dlls associated with the cryptographic service are softpub, wintrust, initpki, dssenh, rsaenh, gpkcsp, sccbase, slbcsp, mssip32, & cryptdlg. Most of these have been already implemented as builtin dlls.
