You know it would be very helpful if you put the name of the program
in the topic title and somewhere in the forum message.

I would suggest trying Wine-1.3.31 when it becomes available for your
specific Linux distribution. There are many fixes for problems
encountered with 1.3.29 and 1.3.30.

Run a regression test and file a bug. http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting

paulthetall wine is not 100 percent stable software. I stay away from installing anything in wine that has a install counter.

Heck even on windows I say well clear of anything that has a install counter where I can as well.

You find that that a lot of these programs can also become under windows non activated due to windows updates and drivers so slowly but surely eat threw there activation count.

I see them as a huge con job. You are being ripped off and you are being too blind to see it.
