He delivered a working solution at the end and promised to add it, but never did in the end.
The on-access scanning might find AJs approval either way.

For all I know, Chris got hit by real life. It might be a nice thing for somebody new to wine to start on. Updating it to current wine and getting it in.
Dan, you might want to make that a blueprint on launchpad, perhaps? (Or anyone else who can edit the Wine launchpad project)

Wait for next blog. Maybe then you will be able to identify company user works for. Blog is practically empty. User profile does not give any details about blogger.
There is no anti-virus which can protect machine from user, new virus or targeted trojan. Every virus has a strike window. There is some time between virus release date and virus definition updates, that detect this virus. Every sane virus writer should check his creation against latest virus definitions in main anti-virus packages.

It might also be useful to have a guide on how to use SELinux to confine a wine instance to it's WINEPREFIX (write access, sometimes it might be desirable to still have read access to the outside). So that an infection can not be spread further than that. Such a confinement might make on access scanning obsolete. One could just manually scan when executing foreign files.
