IE8_on_ubuntu.md

###avoid the error "this installation does not support your system architecture, (32/64 bits)"

export WINEPREFIX=~/.wine_ie8 #make sure this is a BRAND NEW DIRECTORY
export WINEARCH=win32 # make sure you do this BEFORE you install IE8
###download http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msctf
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msimtf
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?uxtheme

mv *dll ~/.wine_ie8/drive_c/windows/system32

####download IE8 from here

winetricks corefonts gdiplus msls31 msxml3 riched20 tahoma fontfix fontsmooth-rgb
####download msxml3.msi from http://download.cnet.com/Microsoft-XML-Parser-MSXML-3-0-Service-Pack-7-SP7/3000-7241_4-10731613.html, place it in /home/user/.cache/winetricks/msxml3, then run the step below

winetricks corefonts gdiplus msls31 msxml3 riched20 tahoma fontfix fontsmooth-rgb

wine ~/Documents/IE8-WindowsXP-x86-ENU.exe cat /tmp/copy_file.txt|xargs -I {} sh -c {} wine 'C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore' #click install updates and click "reboot now" when prompted

on reboot, you will get a lot of copy errors, use the path mentioned in those errors and replace 30996aea7694899e6f in the copy_file.txt file.
