To the bes of my knowledge wine works better with no windows than it
does with windows xp/me. In fact this is a FAQ.

As far as the password box not showing up it might help if you modified
your ~/.wine/config file so that the app defaults for quicken used
desktop mode insted of manage. Section 4.1.2.12 of the following link
explains how to do this
http://www.winehq.com/Docs/wine-user/configuring.shtml
I triage the bugzilla database and I do not recall seeing this bug
regarding quicken so I think it would be safe to submit it.
