Windows viruses on Mac OS X

Post by winem »

Hi Guys. I am apologising if this is dumb question, but I would like to know this.

When I install wine, would I be able to get windows viruses in my Mac OS, and by that I mean not just those executable, but also those from web( not sure, maybe they're called scripts viruses) ? And if I for example run executable file with virus would it be able to make a damage to system ?

Thanks in advance !

Regards
