This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
It's better I fact. There's a lot less worry about installing a virus.
Actually, no. Windows viruses can work well in wine. You still have to be careful in that regard.
But the virus will be stuck in its wine prefix, right?
No, not necessarily. Wine programs usually have access to your home directory as a Windows drive (X: or Z: or similar). So do be careful
I mean it's probably possible to craft a Windows virus that targets Linux through Wine, but I don't think a generic Windows malware would do any damage on Linux.
