Well, starting from all wine releases from July 05, the configuration method has changed. Wine stores all its settings in the (plain text) registry itself. So, there is no .wine/config anymore. I suggest you remove your old wine installation and try again. The config editor is now "winecfg".
I could attach my registry if you want, but I doubt it would be of much use.

If the scripts I posted didnt work, try to install IE through winetools. Also make sure you have the latest version of wine and winetools. (you can add this to your sources.list:  deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/ )

Wine has improved tremendously now. MS Office through wine is more stable than openoffice!
Btw, is it just my install or is OOO2.0.x incredibly unstable?
