Neutral

Because the virus was designed to infect the windows platform only his/your wine directory would be effected and to fix the problem you would simply uninstall wine and or remove your .wine directory. Removing wine is not the only solution - you could also try removing the virus as you would in windows.

For safer use, dont associate wine with executables ( .exe's)....dont associate it with anything for that matter. Even without the associations you can still run your apps manually and use shortcut / launchers.
