From Wikipedia:
"Wine is a free software application that aims to allow [Linux] to execute programs written for Microsoft Windows. "
To do that follow those steps:
1) Go to Applications > Add/Rermove...
2) Change "Show" to "All available applications" and type "Wine" in the search field.
3) Mark the checkbox so it's installed, following the prompts.
Now double clicking on any .exe file will try and execute it as a Windows application. This will not work for all Windows applications.
