Setting up a non-install .exe?

Hey y'all, I have a program that I downloaded of which the .exe file is the entire program. It is not an install executable. On my Windows machine it simply runs the program when opened. How do I set up this executable in Wine? Thus far I get the error:

user@user:~$ wine thumbcache_viewer.exe
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.VC90.CRT"
err:module:import_dll Library MSVCR90.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\thumbcache_viewer.exe") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program Files\\thumbcache_viewer.exe" failed, status c0000135

Thoughts?

You don't do anything special to run such an executable - wine handles
it like any other executable, and the way you are invoking it is correct.

the problem is that you're missing a file: as you can see in the
second-to-last line of your output there, MSVCR90.dll isn't being found.
So, you'll need a copy of that library for your program to work.

That is part of the visual studio 2008 runtime (not sure if you need
the sp1 or not) which is available via winetricks.
