http://www.wine.org/  -- I think.

A tarball that I was able to get to build and to work under Slackware 7.1 is
at http://www.earthops.net/Wine-20020411.tar.gz

Once built, I believe that 

`wine -win w2k /path/to/file` 

will run it. 

It's fairly annoying to use (stupid debugging screen!) but it does run
things.
