Additional Comments
You have to do "winetricks vcrun6" to get missing redistributables (mfc42 and msvcp60), "winetricks wininet" if needed to work around bug 16292, "winetricks directx9" if needed to work around bug 16293, and "winetricks ie6" if needed to work around bug 16294.

Open up the Terminal ( It would normally be in Applications > Accessories. ) and paste in the three commands:
If you have a wine older than 1.1.12, you'll also have to do sh winetricks directx9 to work around a crash bug (bug 16293).
This works for Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10; it may not for other versions of Linux.
