Hi,
I'm renting a dedicated server, which comes pre-installed with Debian 5; my problem is that Wine simply does not work - I keep receive the same error "Cannot execute binary file".

I have the latest Wine, albeit still unstable, installed, and I am pointing to the utorrent.exe...

What am I doing wrong to get this error? Even better would be if someone could post direct instructions on how to.

Try these steps in terminal:

apt-get remove wine
apt-get build-dep wine

wget http://internap.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wine/wine-1.1.7.tar.bz2
tar xvjpf wine-1.1.7.tar.bz2

cd wine-1.1.7/

./configure && make && make install

wine --version

Check for 1.17 and you're good to go.

wine utorrent.exe

This is taken from Naq's guide in the tutorial section. Alternatively you can get version 0.9.25 of wine from here
