Right, it is another problem. I downloaded this
very strange application and the following hack
is fixing the problem :

--- input.c.orig        Tue Nov 13 21:30:59 2001
+++ input.c     Fri Nov 16 12:26:10 2001

 WORD WINAPI GetAsyncKeyState(INT nKey)
 {
-    WORD retval = ((AsyncKeyStateTable[nKey] & 0x80) ? 0x0001 : 0) |
+    WORD retval;
+    MsgWaitForMultipleObjects( 0, NULL, FALSE, 0, QS_ALLINPUT );
+    retval = ((AsyncKeyStateTable[nKey] & 0x80) ? 0x0001 : 0) |
                   ((InputKeyStateTable[nKey] & 0x80) ? 0x8000 : 0);
     AsyncKeyStateTable[nKey] = 0;
     TRACE_(key)("(%x) -> %x\n", nKey, retval); 

Let me know if everything works as normal for
the application, if yes I'll try to send it to the
Wine maintainer.

(btw there is something wrong with your news
software it seems - or the Enter key of your
keyboard is faulty and repeats too much)
