jre-1.5 works great on ies4linux until version0.9.51by following this guide bleow:
rmathew.blogspot.com/2007/04/running-java-applets-in-internet.html
But it doesn't work any more after wine has been upgraded to the recent version 0.9.52:
Opening web pages containing Java applets will cause ies4linux to crash.
What does not
wine version 0.9.48 - 0.9.51: all java web applets worked fine
wine version: 0.9.52, causing ies4linux to crash
Workarounds
