I have a program that I simply received as an .exe file. Installation seems to work with wine but it asks to activate the product online. The preset is to use the Internet Explorer settings but as I don't have neither Windows nor the Internet Explorer I am stuck. There is a setting to route the request via a proxy server and port 80 but I have no idea what to make of it.

How do I activate this port to use within wine?

I have tried to uncheck the Use Proxy Server box with the same result:

I opened up a terminal to track what wine is doing, navigated to the .exe file and started it. The activation screen occurs (picture 1). Here is the output:

Wine probably has installed a version of Internet Explorer 6. You may find it by browsing to the following location (.wine is a hidden directory which can be shown in Nautilus by hitting Ctrl + H:

~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer

There you may find the following icon ready to run by clicking:

Alternatively try to execute it with the following command:

 wine '/home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Internet Explorer/iexplore.exe'

This will open Internet Explorer in Wine, from where you can access the registration site (hopefully in your locale - shown here is a German locale):
