The strange thing is that we DO try to retrieve the messages but in a
different thread than windows appears to do ?
Investigation continues, but that probably boils down to investigating the
windows installation and figure out why 'they' do the retrieving in the
main thread.
Several (demo)games from M$ seem to have the same problem/issue BTW
according to bugzilla. The application database shows that ZooTycoon was
working somewhere in 2001 (with wineX that is). Luckily not so much
changed during the last years ;-)
Cheers,
Paul.
