As weird as this may sound, cheapest soma, sometimes even Linux users need Internet Explorer - for example to check how they current web design looks in the good old IE, cheapest soma, to browse an ‘IE only page’ (probably not as big problem as a few years ago though), cheapest soma, or to log in to a legacy system for example. Cheapest soma, For some time I have thought this is possible only with Crossover Office (which is not not expensive, cheapest soma, but still not free) until Gabor told me about a completely free, cheapest soma, easy-to-install and working solution: IEs4Linux.
Paradoxically, cheapest soma, IEs4Linux provides a functionality which is (AFAIK) not available to Windows users: It installs 3 versions of Internet Explorer: 5.0, cheapest soma, 5.5 and 6.0.
Maybe the time has come for Win32 users to install Ubuntu so they can view their webdesign in all the currently used versions of IE?
So, cheapest soma, now for the installation:
Check /etc/apt/sources.list - make sure you have access to the ‘universe’ packages by uncommenting the following lines:
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu dapper universe
-
Step 1 If you have just uncommented the lines, cheapest soma, don’t forget to apply the changes:
sudo apt-get update
-
Step 2 Install wine and cabextract:
sudo apt-get install wine cabextract
-
Step 3 Install IEs4Linux:
wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz tar -xzvf ies4linux-latest.tar.gz cd ies4linux-x.y.z (where x.y.z is the actual version number) ./ies4linux
There you go. Cheapest soma, After specifying which versions you need, cheapest soma, choosing a locale and a few minutes of installation you should have the links on your desktop.
Check out the original page for new versions, cheapest soma, updates or to donate for this awesome stuff!

Cheapest soma, Thank you for the tip! I’ll be sure to come back here when I need it.
BTW, cheapest soma, there is a way to install IE multiple times on windows, cheapest soma, which essentially consist of uncompressing the files manually (without going through the installer, cheapest soma, add a file called IEXPLORE.exe.local, cheapest soma, and remove 2 dlls.

Cheapest soma, heyas all.
my 40 gig drive is going to good use now. I have installed UBUNTU and have ordered KUBUNTU.
I dont know how to install the driver for my ati radeon 9600xt.
Actually i dont know if i am meant to be downloading and installing XFREE86 or the XORG version of the driver. I am downloading them both but i dont know how to do anything in Linux really.
I dont know where I am meant to set up my modem or set up a net account. (no INETWIZ.EXE)
So yeah, cheapest soma, can someone help me out with getting my ATI driver installed?
and does anyone know of a good long PDF file i can read and wrap my brain around.
I’m still a Windows user, cheapest soma, but I want to use Linux as much as possible.
Thanks.

Make Step One “sudo apt-get update” and Step Two “sudo apt-get install wine cabextract” and instead of just saying “http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz” make it a true step by step and keep it a command: “wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz“
