OK, in all jurisdictions that recognise the rule of law and the right of copyright holders. I'm sure you could use it in Somalia or Iraq without anybody sueing you.
In Sweden it's like this:
IE is availible as a download on the web. However, you are allowed to use it on your own however you wish.
Why so?
Any additional license agreements are click-through or whatever. In Sweden a contract done like that is not valid. It has to be an oral or written agreement between two (juridical or physical) persons.
This leaves us with plain copyright law. IE is still copyrighted of course, so you may not be permitted to spread it further.
But since you have not agreed to any license, you are free to personally use your download however you wish.
