The app use probably winsock, so -debugmsg +relay,+winsock

Yes, that's an annoying problem. I have a workaround for it
but I did not succeed in getting it into Wine :-/
For now the only way is to gzip the whole trace, put it on a web
site and post the address here (after removing your password if
it appears in the trace of course) in the hope that someone will
examine it.

To do debugging you need to compile from source,
at least to be able to change the code.
Then you need to have a reference for Windows
Api to understand something of what is happening in the
traces. At some time it was possible to download a help
file from the Borland site. Then there is the msdn on Ms
site.
