First do a:

grep -n 'iview428_setup.exe' `which winetricks`
This is to find out the location (line) which we have to edit. After all, winetricks is just a script!
Find the sha1sum of the downloaded file:
sha1sum ~/downloads/iview433_setup.exe

79a7ebe2325ad204712761aa3c3a072025b07784[/code]









Then, do a which winetricks to find the location of winetricks and edit it.

That is, do:
sudo kate `which winetricks`[/code]

Copy the file to /var/www/
cp ~/downloads/iview433_setup.exe /var/www/[/code]

Edit winetricks:
w_metadata irfanview apps

title="Irfanview"

Note the change from iview428_setup.exe to iview433_setup.exe at the first location,

and the url change from http://www.software.com/files/iview428_setup.exe which is broken to http://localhost/iview433_setup.exe.
Of course this works only if you have LAMP installed. If you don't, just use the correct url from brothersoft. The one for iview433_setup.exe is 
http://files.brothersoft.com/photograph_graphics/image_viewers/iview433_setup.exe[/code]
