wine users - May 2002 - Corrupted Program Files Directory

Has anyone had this experience with WINE?
I wasn't doing anything very unusual (or sophisticated). I had run Quicken 
just to see if it worked, which it did fine. I had also run my ACR program 
(see  prior post) in debug mode to see if I could get any other ideas about 
get it to function proberly. 

Then I notice that my Program Files directory is empty? Eventually I find all 
the contents in this new directory called "!$!$!$!$.pfr" which
contains some
additional directories with "corrupt" sounding names?

This is a bigger problem than I want to mess with; so whatever I'm doing I 
want to stop immediately.

Thanks

I haven't, but I don't have MSIE or any other MS program lying around.

Surely the Codeweavers release includes the README?  Have a look at
section 6. RUNNING PROGRAMS
