Well, yes, I always tried in a clean wineprefix without any Winetricks installed. I'm not installing them since I understood that's not where to attack the problem from. Also using Wine 1.3.4, and I don't get any terminal messages after typing "wine DBabble.exe" (don't remember the exact name of the app exe, but I think the idea is the same), just the symptoms I mentioned before. And while the admins of the server I connect don't upgrade their DBabble version, I'm stuck with 2.2h.
