Anybody ever got Email support from Thrustmaster?

I've emailed the following to Thrustmaster's tech support 3 times since xmas
(each time getting an automated response saying somebody would get back to
me in 1-2 business days), and I've posted it on their tech support forum.
I've yet to here back.  Maybe they lurk here...

I got a TM Ferrari Force Feedback wheel for xmas, it works great but when
I've got the profiler software running in the background to re-map the
buttons to keyboard inputs Grand Prix Legends crashes after a few minutes.
If I run GPL without the profiler running everything appears stable.

It sometimes comes up with a blue screen (0E exception from 0028:C0030D61 in
VXD.---  called from 0028:CA304005 in VXD.---   (dashes not underscores)),
other times it just boots me back to windows.  I tried both DX6.n and DX8.0.

Also any keyboard inputs run through the profiler are typed in the game much
slower then they were actually recorded in the profiler,  so slow that
they're not timely enough to be used.

Thanks,

Art.
