Wine will create a virtual 'Windows' drive system in the user's home directory, and usually is named .wine (dot)wine. By default, directories that start with the 'dot' character are hidden and can be exposed by various methods. Deleting this directory will remove all of the installed Windows programs and allow for a 'fresh' install. The FAQ has further details on this. James
