What works

TaxAct 2006 installed perfectly, and at the end of the install I was given the option to start the program. I said yes, and the program ran just fine.

What does not

However, when I tried to run the program separately, I got this error:
root@PC1:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/2nd Story Software/TaxACT 2006# ./TaxAct06.exe
run-detectors: unable to find an interpreter for ./TaxAct06.exe

Workarounds

What was not tested

Nothing.

Additional Comments

I'm hoping to find an "interpreter" since the program ran fine from inside the install program
