If you're using the newest Ubuntu (7.10), or an official package on Edgy, it probably binds Wine to the file manager. You should be able to double-click on the installer and have Wine run it.

As a warning, Wine stores its files in /home/user/.wine/c_drive . Since WoW is really big, make sure you have enough space in your home directory for it.

Good luck!

I know I have enough room. I don't know which version of Ubuntu I'm using, but it's the Feisty package. :P

Feisty is 7.04, released in April 2007.

The newest is Gutsy, 7.10, released in October 2007.
(Ubuntu release numbers are the year and month they came out.)

... that's how they get the release numbers?

That makes a certain amount of sense. It's a royal pain in the ass to the natural software version numbering assumption - to wit, that 7.10 is an incremental bugs-and-only-a-few-features upgrade to 7.04 - but I can see how you might want to do that.
