I just received a call from an indian microsoft technician. He informed me that my PC is sending a ton of error messages to microsoft. Most likely it has been hacked, and he would help me by remoting in and fixing the problem for me. I just wonder… Is it my PopOs or my Manjaro PC that sends all this info to microsoft?
All that malware should be running without problems. Wine’s gotten pretty good by now.
Ah yes, I remember back in the day we had to build WINE with unofficial patches to get malware to work. How times have changed.
Proper malware often still doesn’t run. Cheap executables to encrypt your stuff and so on the other hand work well.
Which is why wine should be run as its own unpriviledged user…
I still chuckle about the fact that WannaCry the ransomware software has a WineHQ entry
