your Firefox/Flash/64-bit stuff shouldn't be an issue.

I tried that, and it sends me to a "the page cannot be displayed." I've posted another screenshot. It still seems a bit ominous that I cannot get in with the registration information anyway.
Let me give you some more background as to my history in attempting to run this game in linux.
I had wine 1.1.1 and for all intents and purposes, I've been able to run almost anything with it. I tried using it when I installed (blindly) sbcg4ap at first, and of course it didn't work. So that's when I began to scour through the internet and stumbled upon this thread. I subsequently deleted the folder (first also uninstalled the game using the uninstaller app) and installed ies4linux. Seemed to have trouble with the gui installation, but I finally got it to run. I then continued to follow the instructions and still with no avail.
So I broke down and installed the new version of wine (1.1.4, after removing 1.1.1 of course) and started the process all over, but kept the first ies4linux. No avail. I then tore everything down and started from scratch (deleted the ~/.ies4linux folder ~/.wine_sbcg4ap and any other remnants I could find, though I think that's about it). I installed ies4linux and sbcg4ap still following the instructions and finally got to the point where I could see the splash screen asking for the information input. That's what puts us now where I currently am.
I'm thinking there might be something wrong with the settings in IE6 to connect to the internet, or something to that effect. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!
