The following WORKAROUND inhibits picasa from automatically updating from 3.8 to 3.9:

1. Install any version (3.8 or 3.9) (I installed 3.8)
2. Run picasa and and select in Tools->Options->Automatic Updates: Don't check for updates
3. Close picasa and reopen it. Now it will automatically update to version 3.9.
4. Close picasa again and simply install version 3.8 without uninstalling 3.9.

I am running wine 1.5.0
winetricks installed: ie7 dotnet20 wininet

With this setup it is possible for me to sign in to a google account from within picasa.
