Yes, this work-around works for me too.  I reported the same here on the
reflector on 21 February following ARRL DX CW:

	P40L (W6LD and W0YK) ran 10.84d with a message
	'%C <<ENN^K>>' and WinKey2 version 2.3 in ARRL
	DX CW this past weekend.  We had some delays in
	this message when first loading WriteLog, but
	when we went into Setup/Ports and simply clicked
	'OK', the problem went away.

Note that the problem returns each time WriteLog is started, but is always
cleared by going to Setup/Ports and immediately exiting without changing
anything.  Several others have found this works for them as well.
