           Summary: a safe directory/paths setting?
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.3
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: spam at femail.mine.nu


I would like a way to configure wine to only run a .exe if it's within a list
of "safe" paths, so that I don't have to worry about accidentally running
something nasty (like an e-mail virus that I extracted to get a better look
at).

I've seen WINE as the default file association for .exe files in at least KDE
and Gnome, so an accidental double-click is possible. It isn't really wine's
fault, but wine seems the surest place to counter the problem and this is
probably pretty easily to implement.
