As you can see here, newer versions of IE have serious issues with Wine.
So I would think, if you really want to use IE, then use it on Windows. You will find several Windows programs that will not run or run badly with Wine. Most of them have native alternatives in Linux. You should give them a try.
If those applications don't fit your needs, you have to ask yourself a simple question: If you don't want to or can't use Linux applications, does it really make sense for you to run Linux?

I understand that. But if the OP already has IE installed in windows, why would he/she want to try to use IE within an emulated OS on top of the original platform for IE?
TOBISGD there are many themes that are available in firefox that you don't have to google for and are available to firefox that emulate windows. google is good but if op goes to FF addons they save time and get what they want and also easier to install from addons window.
