Install WINE in ubuntu for run Windows Application:
$ sudo apt-get install wine
-------------------------------------------
Remove WINE:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
$ rm -rf ~/.wine
-------------------------------------------
Configuration of the WINE:
$ winecfg
-------------------------------------------
Installing Windows Applications Using Wine
To install Windows applications using Wine, follow these instructions:
1. Download the Windows application from any source (e.g. download.com). Download the .EXE (executable).
2. Place it in a convenient directory (e.g. the desktop, or home folder).
3. Open the terminal, and cd into the directory where the .EXE is located.
4. Type wine the-name-of-the-application.extension (e.g. wine realplayer.exe).
This will start the .EXE using Wine. If it is an installer, it should then run as it would in Windows. If the application asks for a directory to install the application to, select put it under C:\Program Files.
Download Windows Application:(In my case I install following application.)
[ Firefox Setup 3.6.2.exe ]
[ IE7-WindowsXP-x86-jpn.exe ]
[ VeohWebPlayerSetup_eng.exe ]
[ install_flash_player.exe ]
-------------------------------------------
Uninstalling Wine Applications
Open up a terminal window and type "uninstaller" - this will open up a program similar to Windows' "add/remove programs" control panel, allowing you to uninstall applications from a Wine installation. Running uninstall programs directly via Wine should also work normally. Alternatively, you could also simply delete the folder of the application. However, as when done in Windows, this method will be "unclean" and will not remove the program's configuration from the Wine registry like using an uninstaller will. If the command "uninstaller" results in an error message try the "wine uninstaller" command.
-------------------------------------------
Adding CD and DVD drives to WINE:
Go to the drives tab in winecfg. Hit the Autodetect button.
If you find that this does not work correctly for you, then follow these instructions:
1. Run winecfg
2. Navigate to the drives tab
3. Click on Add...
4. In the path bar, type /media/cdrom
5. Click Show Advanced button below the Browse... button and set the Type to CD-ROM
6. Click OK
-------------------------------------------
How to make sure the program runs properly:
$ wine "C:\PATHTOPROGRAM\Program.exe" in the command line.
eg:
$ wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe")
-------------------------------------------
Changing application specific settings
1. Type winecfg at the command line
2. Click on Add Application...
3. Navigate to where the exe is and choose that program
4. The dropdown at the bottom allows you to choose which version of Windows Wine should emulate. Also, any changes to the Libraries and Graphics tabs will only affect the chosen application in the Applications tab.

Using Windows Themes/Skins In Wine:
Color Scheme
You can change the wine color scheme to closely match the default Ubuntu colors
$ gedit ~/.wine/user.reg
You may also want to create a backup copy in your Home folder
cp ~/.wine/user.reg ~/
Replace the [Control Panel\\Colors] section with
[Control Panel\\Colors] 1176981676

Fullscreen issues with overlapping Panel:
Sometimes the Panel overlaps your fullscreen application you're running in wine. If you are running Visual Effects, the first solution you should try is to turn those off: Go to System -> Preferences -> Appearance, and click the Visual Effects tab. Select None, and your screen will flash. Try your full-screen application again. You may re-enable Visual Effects afterwards - just don't forget to turn them back off when you want to run that application again!
If that does not work, then you will have to turn off the panels prior to running the application and restarting it afterwards, until a better workaround can be found. In Ubuntu the commands are gnome-session-remove gnome-panel and gnome-panel & respectively. In Xubuntu I understand they are killall xfce4-panel and xfce4-panel.
$ sudo apt-get install wine

Remove WINE:
$ sudo apt-get remove --purge wine
$ rm -rf ~/.wine
