Good I leave east tutorial here them that I have created so that they install Internet Explorer 5, 5.5, 6 and 7 runing in linux.

• For which they need two programs already installed one of them are wine (it executes exe in linux)

Download Wine (there the unloading for several distributions)

• The other program that need is cabextract, I leave the unloading here equal

Download Cabextract

after the Wine and cabextract have unloaded, we come to unload ie4linux in his latest version:

Download IES4LINUX

put tar xvfz ies4linux-latest.tar.gz



cd ies4l....

and later they put ./ies4linux and the installation file would be executed to them, will ask to them that if wants to install plugins and other things

since it says to them that I settle or go to the /root/bin folder or they make direct access in the desk.

and there he will be ie5, ie55, ie6 execute the one that wants and ready.

Or execute this easy script:






The IE7 interface is the same of IE6. What happens is that IEs4Linux makes work the motor of IE7 through the IE6 interface.

How to install it?
Simple. You only must lower and install the second beta of IEs4Linux 2.5 and execute the installer with the option –beta-install-ie7 . But eye that so that everything works you must have installed wine (to execute .EXEs) and cabextract (to extract .CABs in the installation).

Notes:
1. - Some distributions of linux already bring including wine and cabextract
2. - The reason of installing IE in linux? Some webmaster they need to see its Webs from different navigators.

this reminds me of a funny little blog article i once read where a man tried his hardest to get a win32 virus to run on linux, but in every case failed...

it's pretty funny... i think i found it by searching for linux virus... in order to show how linux allows users to remain a bit more separated from themselves, and therefore pretty much squashes the transfer of viruses...

I actually used this for a while now. I didn't find the Internet Explorer 7 though, how did you get that? I need to use IE for web development purposes and I do not like rebooting into Windows XP everytime I needed to test a page layout, etc. With this, I can still test my site compatibility with IE.

A problem with this IE is that it doesn't support ActiveX controls, therefore I still can't play MSN Zone games. Well at least it's more secure that way I think.
