In a terminal, I try to run an install program "swb32c100.exe"
ie:  

[pat at pat .wine]swb32v100.exe
I see a progress window (horizonal progress bar) for a split second, then it goes away and I get the error message:

I have also tried:
[pat at pat .wine]msiexec swb32v100.exe[pat at pat .wine]wine swb32v100.exe[pat at pat .wine]wine msiexec swb32v100.exe
I get the same error message.
I am running Fedora 9 and Wine 1.1.5I'm assuming this message is from Wine?
Since I am running Fedora 9, I entered the following command:
$ sudo sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0
(per http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/AndreasBierfert/Wine) 

No difference.

I am able to run Notepad OK.
