Install it like you would any other program in windows.

You can, but it's an incredably bad idea unless a program you use absolutely
depends on it. IE is non-trivial to install in Wine, and IE suffers from a
large number of security issues making it unsuitable for use by anyone who
doesn't want to get compromised. Use Konqueror or Iceweasel (or Firefox)
instead.
