Yes, you are right. I meant iexplore.exe.

I had slightly better luck now. When I create a new .wine directory by winecfg, if I set OS emulation to Windows 2000 (the default was Windows XP), I could actually get IE6 completely installed (at least appearantly complete). But I still couldn't run it!

When I run iexplore.exe, it always show my a completely blank IE6 window, and pop up saying that it needs "Wine Gecko Installer." But even if I press the "Download" button, nothing happens, and the IE6 window remained empty.

After a little bit of searching, I tried installed Mozilla ActiveX Control. This time round, IE6 no longer ask me to download "Wine Gecko Installer," but still, the IE window is completely blank.

Appearantly, most people didn't have any problem installing IE6 from the installer. But I just wonder if there is anything so peculiar about my system (Ubuntu Edgy, completely new installation, Wine 0.9.27 built from source)... It's been really a pain these few days while I was trying all sorts of methods trying to get IE installed... *sigh*

Cheers,
