[Wine] Beginner and need to install Wine IExplore

I have recently downloaded puppy to my computer.  The version is Lucid version 5.2.8, released Aug 2011.  It is the only running OS in a very old machine that use to run Windows 2000 Professional.  I believe I downloaded the full-package, I'm not sure if the installation was a frugal process.

I am trying to run Wine IExplore it is telling me to download gecko so that HTML will run.  How do I do that? I need step by step instructions, please.  Newbie, here.

I don't know which gecko I should get and I don't know all the console commands.  Every time I try to type anything in the console, it gives me the message : 

sh-4.1# $ wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine_gecko-1.4-x86.msi
sh: $: command not found

What am I doing wrong and how do I fix it? Please help and thanks!
