           Summary: root partion accessible although not linked via
                    dosdevices
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.22.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-files

Hi,

I executed a malware via wine and parts of my linux filesystem, that were
writeable to my account (including my linux home directory) were deleted.

I had a single link under .wine/dosdevices : that is c: -> ../drive_c

So I thought that this is the only path windows programs executed via wine
'see'. After this accident I saw in a another program under wine that the
complete linux root filesystem is accessible for windows programs under wine.
'/' shows up not under 'My Computer' like the devices that I define via
.wine/dosdevices but it shows up directly under 'Desktop'.

Why is this so? Where can I disable this? I googled a lot, read the FAQ, forums,
looked for relevant options in the wine registry and winecfg, searched bugzilla.
But nothing.

Since I'm unable to disable this behaviour I decided to fill a bug report.

System: Kubuntu 6.10

Thanks in advance...
