You need to apply the patch to fix the issue. The patch is on the same download page. Extract to root folder of the game (if game is in c:\WickedIsland extract to c:\)
Thanks anyway, but I cannot get this to work which is bizarre as it should be simple enough. Perhaps if the patch is integrated into the main game some day I'll give it another go. Looks quite good from what I could do. Best of luck with your efforts.
