First, I downloaded the IE11-Windows7 image from Microsoft and imported the appliance.
Then I downloaded DB2 10.5 x86 from IBM and installed it in this VM. It worked fine.
Also downloaded JDBC driver v.4 from IBM and the latest Squirrel, installed the driver and connected to the DB2 instance SAMPLE DB as db2admin user.
All that was done under VirtualBox 5.0.8 run by Fedora 26 host.
It does work, maybe the VM settings got mixed up in your case. MS sets the VM networking to NAT, and I had to switch it to bridged in my case. Other than that, no issues.

This didn't work for me either. I could start the Virtual Box VM but
neither DB2 nor even Firefox would install in the VM.
Sorry for now. Perhaps somebody with some Java experience and access to
a DB2 database could look after the problem. I'd appreciate a patch or
merge request or simply changed code files mailed to me.
