There are several ways to run Windows programs within Linux; if all you
need is IE and Office tools, try "Crossover Office" which is a modified
form of WINE. See http://www.codeweavers.com/products/office/
Other products are Win4Lin and VMWare, which allow you to run entire
Windows sessions within your Linux OS, and support many other Windows apps
besides IE and Office.
The above are all commercial, closed-source, non-free software. If you're
interested in running Windows programs under Linux for free, try Wine :
http://www.winehq.com/ . You may or may not get IE to work...it's not
easy.
