The correct fix would be to:

What's the best way for an application to detect that it's running under Wine?
Some people have given suggestions, but please note that we discourage
doing this. It's better to fix Wine than to work around its bugs, and
working around bugs removes incentive to fix them. So please, log a
bug

Did you read the second paragraph of my original email? I'm not
working around a bug in Wine, unless it's a bug that a user can map

Yes, I read it. And scanning / shouldn't be a problem, unless
you've also mapped network drives there. That seems to be the
I'de like to nominate this bit of code (if approved as an 'acceptable

Not acceptable practice. See e.g. the old faq entry:

Yes, that's the root of the problem. I can't prevent the end-user
from mounting network drives -- in fact, in the expected installation
environment, the average user will have several very large network
drives mounted.
I believe you.
Under Windows, installation takes about five minutes,
