Hi there, I recently downloaded Wine version  20050301 for Mandrake.  I 
installed it using the RPM File Installer.  It went perfectly fine...I 
then went to www.mirc.com to download the latest version of mIRC and I 
typed in:
wine mirc616.exe in terminal and got this:

[docvell at localhost docvell]$ wine mirc616.exe

Should I have installed it via command line? and if I did properly 
install it, should I have tried to install mIRC as root?  PLEASE help!

Thanks
