I installed Wine 1.5 with the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install wine1.5
sudo apt-get install winetricks
and got the following errors:

I tried apt-get update, no help
Anyway, Wine seems to be installed, but I can't figure out how to install
programs. Also, it has locked up my machine once in about 20 minutes.
I need Quicken 2001 to work. The Wine app database says "platinum".
I need Internet Explorer to work (It is needed for an online site need to use.)
The program called IE with the install won't even load the site
(www.accuchek.com). It just says "loading..... (big long string...), and
sometimes crashes. I think I need to load a real IE - but back again to - How?
When I checked for Wine install in Software Center, it was unclear which one to
use, so I found the above instructions on line. Should I uninstall this one and
use the one in Software Center? If so:
- How do I uninstall it?
- Which one (or all?!?) of the three different ones (Microsoft Windows
Compatibility Layer, Q4Wine, Wine Windows Program Loader) in the Software Center
do I install?
Help!?!
I got the site to load, but when attempting to get to the page I need, I got the below: CAUTION: The software on your computer does not meet the minimum requirements for using Diabetes AssistantSM Program. The following table compares the minimum requirements with the software and settings on your computer. Before continuing, we recommend that you log out of Diabetes Assistant Program and upgrade the items shown in red.

Netscape Cookies: Enabled Enabled Java: Enabled Enabled If I can get a "real" version of IE loaded and running, will it solve the above problems, including hiding Linux from the site?
