Quicken 2008 has problems in registration and also in selling an update to
Quicken 2009.  Both of these can happen during One Step Update.

In later Wine versions, the registration dialog appears but is garbled and
unusable (bug 19378).  You can stop Quicken trying to register by holding Ctrl
and Shift down while choosing Online > One Step Update.

In my experience with wine 1.1.30 with no Wine tricks, Quicken 2008 displays
"Com Error" alerts and then crashes when it tries to sell an update to Quicken
2009.  By using winecfg to set the Windows Version for qw.exe to Windows 98,
those alerts went away. The upgrade offer displayed black but I was able to
tell Quicken not to show it any more.

I hope these workarounds help.
