Well, the CreateActCtx call involves something called and "activation 
context". If activation contexts are important to the running of these 
programs, then there is not much you can do except hope someone 
eventually implements the functions. None of the activation context 
functions are currently implemented in Wine. Browse through here:
http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/kernel/actctx.c

The ShellExecute message is likely unimportant, and probably also the 
InitializeImm message.

I will admit that it is not real clear to me what an activation context 
is used for, but you can always read about it here:
