Running MT4 in Linux

Just got MT4 up and running in Ubuntu Linux! I’m too paranoid using windows these days with the numerous trojans/hackers/backdoors/rootkits and after wasting about 2 hours installing XP Again (!) because of AVG which is the worst antivirus software ever I finally got too pissed off with it all.

If anyone wants to know heres a quick how-to:

  1. Install wine (sudo apt-get install wine), or install it from synaptic package manager
  2. Copy MFC42.dll from c:\windows\system32 from your windows pc onto /home/(your username)/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32
  3. grab your MT4 installer from your broker
  4. Open a terminal and type “wine mt4installer.exe”
  5. Once its installed you can run it anytime by opening a terminal and typing
    6. Code:
    #wine "/home/(your username)/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/(your broker)/terminal.exe"

    Don’t forget the inverted commas!
