All that malware should be running without problems. Wine's gotten pretty good by now.
Ah yes, I remember back in the day we had to build WINE with unofficial patches to get malware to work. How times have changed.
But how's Siddhartha going to find the Event Viewer!?
Can someone confirm if syskeying works on Wine?
Proper malware often still doesn't run. Cheap executables to encrypt your stuff and so on the other hand work well.
Which is why wine should be run as its own unpriviledged user...
I still chuckle about the fact that WannaCry the ransomware software has a WineHQ entry
