wine users - May 2008 - execute in win partition -> lose the sandbox effect?

hi, im amazed how wine works. i can even execute some games (tomb raider
anivers., heroes V) from the XP partition with perfect results. But my question
is: if i execute an infected exe this way, could it do more damage than from the
wine menu (installed)?
Thanks

Potentially it can damage all files you have access to as a *NIX user.
Regardless where they @. Usually running programs from windows partition is a
really bad idea - ntfs driver has it's problems and you can damage your
windows install beyond repair.
