Glad to hear that installing the Visual C 6 runtime
libraries was all that was needed.  Evidently
the Visual C++ 8 libraries rely on the old
MSVCIRT.DLL from Visual C 6, which is bundled with
Windows these days.  Could you verify this by
copying just the MSVCIRT.DLL that winetricks installed
somewhere, then create a fresh .wine tree with that
file added, and then try installing the app again?

Wine already implements MSVCRT.DLL from Visual C 6,
perhaps this shows Wine also needs to implement MSVCIRT.DLL.
That's going to be hard, though, since it
seems to be the old C++ iostream library, and has to
be compiled with Visual C++.

No, Wine should not run Winetricks.  winetricks is just
a debugging tool.
