I downloaded the installer, unpacked with unzip, noticed
that it used a few Microsoft components, and installed them
ahead of time with winetricks just in case:
sh winetricks dotnet20 mdac27 jet40
The installer than ran just fine, and finished in under a minute.
I was using wine-1.3.11; if you're using something older, you should
download 1.3.11 or so. (See http://www.winehq.org/download/
for pointers to where to get packages for Ubuntu, etc.)
QSControlNet.exe started up, but with great read X's and black
menu items;
sh winetricks gdiplus
fixed that.
No idea if the app really works, but at least it installs and starts.
