Daniel -
Following your suggestion, I removed the config file and started afresh and all seems to work as expected. I am using wine 0.9.9 and installed via synaptic.
More question to come,

Is there any documentation that instructs a beginner how to configure (and the logic behind) wine and the steps necessary to install windows software? I have the user's guide but it does lack much, particularly what is going on.

"User's guide" as in http://winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/index ?

I am using ubuntu 6.06 and have presumably installed wine correctly.

What wine version and how did you install it?

However, I cannot configure the system. A typical error message is, upon invoking winecfg, is:
Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.

In a correct, fresh install of wine, this does not happen. Try
'rm -fr ~/.wine'

If that doesn't help, there is something wrong with your wine
installation.
