Is there a way to make https work?

Just keep trying to connect
by Lee on Wednesday April 25th 2012, 21:08
I installed IE * using the method here: tinyurl.com/25sf4nb but it just opens (kind of squished) and just keeps trying to connect. I am using Ubuntu 10.4 and Wine v.1.2.2 (and later versions badly screw-up another program).

IE8 - Don't Install
by Kalasi on Thursday January 6th 2011, 4:24
~$ winetricks ie8

Download everything you need, start the installation process and gives an error:
The program iesetup.ehe detected a serious error. The program will be closed. We apologize for any inconvenience. etc.

According to the above instructions from the site www.wine-reviews.net/wine-reviews/microsoft/internet-explorer-8-on-linux-with-wine.html on step

~$ wine IE8-WindowsXP-x86-ENU.exe

is the same :(

Ubuntu 10.10, Wine 1.2.1

IE 8 install
by Tom on Friday November 6th 2009, 2:32
Hello,

I got IE 8 to install and run but as others have pointed out here there are still allot of errors. I installed flash to and it worked fine, and renamed the jscript.dll in /system32 and set it as native and IE 8 installed a native dll.. The native dll seems to work better then the builtin dll at this time.

Cheers,
Tom

IE8 blocked
by Barry Schatz on Thursday June 11th 2009, 11:28
I clicked on the download link for IE8-WindowsXP-x86-ENU.exe but upon running the installer it advises "Internet Explorer 8 is not supported on this operating system."

Working except for JavaScript
by Cillian de Róiste on Tuesday May 5th 2009, 7:25
IE8 works pretty well for me except JavaScript doesn't work and it throws an error for some sites. I don't know why, others work fine. www.google.com gives the error "Internet Explorer couldn't download %ws" although www.jquery.com works fine.

I am using wine-1.1.20 (on Mandriva 2009.0) and went through the following steps:
Created a fresh ~/.wine
Ran winetricks and set the version to win2k and installed IE6.
Ran winetricks and set the version to winxp.
Installed IE7:
$ wine IE7-WindowsXP-x86-enu.exe
Installed IE8:
$ wine IE8-WindowsXP-x86-ENU.exe
I think it installed the first time, but when I tried to run it, it threw an error. For no good reason I ran the installer again. After that it works fine (except it doesn't seem to run any JavaScript). I think it is very usable for testing layout issues.
