in mint cinnamon it still has no power, wine is not in the context menu or program list!
Modern viruses check the os before deciding which type of file to send your way.
This is why you use a user agent switcher to lie about being windows. It's a form of anti malware!
Do you have any data to back up that claim? I don't think that's true at all, it would be very rare.

None whatsoever.

Suspicious words. You have one, don't you? Don't worry, I won't tell.
Why suspicious? I have genuinely never read a news story about a virus sending different versions of itself to different OSs. I'm sure it happens, but it doesn't seem common at all, and you are claiming it very matter-of-factly so I am interested to know more.
If you haven't come across them yet, then i might be a pioneer! Dibs on the patent!
But your words confuse me. Either it's not true at all or it happens. You're sure they exist, though rare. As i said before, suspicious. You might just be one of those rare occurrences after all...
You wish to be the first acknowledged one, no? It's alright, you can have the honour. I'll keep mum about it for you.

Rename all the coreutils. Confuse yourself and the hackers!
