I appear to be having some issues - it installs ok, runs IE6 and will load in the wine homepage. But when I type in another address it seems to start opening the page and loads in the title etc but then just hangs?! ies4osx is using 63.3 CPU Using leopard on a new macbook pro. Any help would be most appreciated! Thanks, This is a great solution for testing IE6 on the mac if I could only get it working.

I'll take a look on why it is consuming that much CPU cycles. BTW: Ie7 is considered beta because of the following hacks: The ie7 user interface is not working on wine yet. That's why the ie7 render-engine was taken and put into the ie6 shell... that way it looks like ie6, but websites are displayed like in ie7. Hi Ryan

Got it installed with only a little hitch (X11 wasn't up-yo-date). Also, I'm noticing that using IE 7 is crazy slow in loading pages. Checked the Activity Monitor and found that (during page load): mwine is using +- 80% cpu wineserver is using +- 20% cpu Any ideas as to the cause. IE 6 doesn't seem to have this problem. Thanks again for the app though. It was much needed. Thanks for a great app! Got it installed with only a little hitch (X11 wasn’t up-yo-date).

Other thing. I often have to use multichat and I don´t feel that Adium does the trick. Sometimes some people in the chat don´t see you and etc. I am just looking for it to use normally. Cheers.

Are You in the need of a specific function of MSN? I'm using <a href="http://www.adiumx.com/" rel="nofollow">Adium</a> to stay in touch with my msn friends... but it's text only. @Hilmar

That's why I got to upload new Darwine/ies4osx binaries. But I still have no access for another 5 hours. @Hilmar & Jerome,
