For future reference; when installing with the Alternate CD, you can
also elect none, and set up your networking following the install. This
eliminates install problems whereby the install is having a problem with
finding/configuring the network, and will install only from the CD.

Find a new employer :-)

You can use IE if you really, really, really need to - install ie4linux:
<http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Ubuntu>

All are from the terminal/command line:

1. Install wine first -
http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
follow the instructions for the APT key, then use the instructions for
gutsy.

wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo
apt-key add -

sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list
-O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine cabextract
sudo apt-get upgrade

2. Download IEs 4 Linux and install

wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
tar zxvf ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
cd ies4linux-*
./ies4linux

Note: the above wget & http: are all one line.
