ikernel.exe

I finally got wine setup today... got photoshop working..sorta (some font issues..but it works for the most part).

I want to install illustrator..but cannot get it to run the install shield program..issue with IKernel.exe.

I also can't seem to get anything to use the X:\ aka Temp directory. One solution to my ikernel issue was to install dcom95.exe and when it tries to unzip its contents to X:\ it dies saying it can't write to that directory.

any thoughts?
