The best place to *find* answers to programming/development questions, imo, however it's the *worst* place to *ask* questions (if your first question/comment doesn't get any up-rating/response, then u can't ask anymore questions--ridiculously unrealistic), but again, a great reference for *finding* answers.

how to install internet explorer 8 (IE8) on ubuntu 12.04: playonlinux


do this in a terminal:
wget -q "http://deb.playonlinux.com/public.gpg" -O- | sudo apt-key add -

sudo wget http://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_precise.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install playonlinux

then start playonlinux and click Install, then type "internet" in the search box and choose IE8. i chose to not install updates when asked and not to restart.

  1. I just did that, but ie8 doesn't work. tried to browse to other pages, but it crash...

    Also, I changed the wine version on POL (from 1.2.3 to 1.5.10/1.4.1/1.3.0/1.2.2) and got the same result.

    any idea?
