Here's how to get and use winetricks:
  Download it from http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks (right click, save as)
  Mark it executable (right click, properties, executable)
  Double-click on it
     Check 'corefonts' in list, then 'ok'
  And it should install the three most commonly used fonts.

Alternate instructions for commandline people:
  wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
  sh winetricks corefonts
