The embedded bzip2 appears to be corrupt:
I was able to download IE5 SP 1 for SPARC off the Internet Archive's Wayback: http://web.archive.org/web/20021001180626/http://www.microsoft.com/Unix/ie/downloads/recommended/ie5/default.asp
I'm seeing if that is install-able. Paging @SomeGuy so he's aware of the database issue.

$ tar jxvf Internet\ Explorer\ 5\ solaris.tar.bz2
bzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.

It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.
You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover
data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.

I guess I will replace it with the one from archive.org, although it could be a slightly different packaging or source. It seems to be a different size.
As a follow-up, I *did* manage to get it to install, but its remarkably pendatic about the version of Solaris *and* the patch sets used. Theoretically, there should be IE4, IE5, and IE5 SP1, plus 128/40 versions, but who knows if all those ever got published.
