Help with this program install error

Installing "Risk" by Shockwave Games.  Install is fine.  Need to unlock the game.  I start it, enter the unlock code and get this error:

Window Title Bar: Wine Internet Explorer
Message:  Exception: TypeError - oX has no properties

Need some help on next steps to possibly solve this.  I checked the FAQ already, but didn't see anything.  If there is something that would help from winetricks, I am just not sure which it would be.

Thanks!

Sounds like the game might need Internet Explorer for some odd reason, and Wine's IE doesn't cut it. Try winetricks ie6.

But before you do so, perhaps you could give us the terminal output and submit a bug report (if it doesn't exist already) so the problem can be identified and fixed in Wine itself.

DaVince,

Thanks for the advice.  I will try the IE6 winetrick.

I did not do anything through terminal, so I am not sure what I could do to get output to submit the report.  I merely started the game through Wine, it comes up with a 'keycode' screen to unlock the full version, which I own and have the keycode for.  I punch in that code, click the enter box and I get the error you saw below.  If you have some instruction on how I might go through the same motions to generate a terminal output for a bug report, I would be grateful.
