Security for Outlook
Posted on May 17th, 2004 by Daniel
From a slashdot interview of Jeremy White, a Wine developer:
We also go to all kinds of interesting lengths to avoid problems with viruses and worms. For example, we have a hack in our flavor of Wine*, in the CreateProcess call (the code to start an executable) that basically checks to see if the parent process is outlook.exe, and if it is, we crash and burn, preventing many of the worms and such from running.
This is great.
