You should remember that you are on Linux and Linux is case
sensitive. So try

# wine IEXPLORE.EXE

Also, it may not be in your path, so you may have to give a fully
qualified windowsified path:

# wine "c:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/IEXPLORE.EXE" &

To find out where something is in your wine tree, try:

find .wine -iname "*.exe" | less

or variations on that. For more information, "info find".
