wine users - Jul 2008 - PolarProTrainer

Program for heartrate registration devices and training programs made by 
www.Polar.fi
Only to be used in Windows.

But . . . 
The program delivered on the Polar product CD is outdated.
Wine 1.0 in Ubuntu8.04 is able to open it
But . . . 
The buildt in updatedevice over the internet do not funksjon. 
All I get is red cross over a logo appearing a short time on the bottom line.

The Wine 1.1.1 may get it working ?
But . . .
I'm not able to install it due to lack of knowledge.
http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb
Clicking the link : Clicking this link does not open any download, but I have
somehow managed to download it and unpacked it.
But . . . 
The Wine installer does not work either - not for me it dosen't.

So - this is no biznizz for novices like me ?

Or du YOU - only by looking, know whar I've done wrong ?
Please tell me ?

I got som help and Wine 1.1.1 is now installed.
But the updateservice is not working. I don't know if it is a Wine problem
or someting else. The updater is made by Geert van Horrik Software 
www.gvhsoftware.org but this version is 0.8.1.2

Wine 1.1.2 did some changes. 
When I try to update, an animated logo appear working infinite time.
I also discovered that the buildt in links to www.polar.fi in help menu do not
work.
I hope some of you got some ideas.......

1.1.3 did nothing for this problem. Still hoping for some help. Ther must be an
number of Polar users out there ?
