Error during installation IEs4linux

Asked by John Paul Tan Galang

I followed the steps in http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Ubuntu. Everything worked fine until the last step. In the IEs4 Linux window showed this error when installing Adobe Flash:

IEs4Linux will:
  - Install Internet Explorers: 6.0
  - Using IE locale: EN-US
  - Install Adobe Flash 9.0
  - Install everything at: /home/johnpaultan/.ies4linux
[ OK ]

Downloading everything we need
  Downloading from microsoft.com:
   0% SCR56EN.CAB
  Downloading from macromedia.com:
   / swflash.cab!! Cannot download flash

Then I tried to redo the installation without the FLASH then it showed this:

IEs4Linux will:
  - Install Internet Explorers: 6.0
  - Using IE locale: EN-US
  - Install everything at: /home/johnpaultan/.ies4linux
[ OK ]

 An error occured when trying to cabextract some files.

I'm pretty stump with this error... Any help would be appreciated.
