    You can find the WINE package, along with instructions for installing and using it here:

    WineHQ - Run Windows applications on Linux, BSD, Solaris and Mac OS X

    Note that you are probably better off to install it using the default package tool for your distribution.

    As ozar said before me, you should use your distro's Package install program.
    It could be Synaptic, KPackage or something else. They are usually GUI apps.

    Alternatively, use the shell, log in as root:
    Code:
    you@pc$ su
    ... type root password ...
    you@pc# apt-get install wine
    ... follow instructions ...
    you@pic# exit
    Afterwards you will have to associate "wine" with the Win32 executables. Usually right-click on an EXE and search in Properties.

    Also if you want to run Win32 apps that don't have a GUI (NT Console), you'll have run them from the shell with the "wine" command.
