wine users - Oct 2004 - Dosdevices Strange bug solved

Hi,

Recently we solved a bug that hanged wine when opening the file selection 
dialog.
It was not reproducible in all the machines and we spent many days 
struggling with it.

The provisional solution is to delete the z: symlink to / (...)

We're using Debian unstable packages but with latest snapshot it still 
happened.

Any Idea?

Thanks

Does this discussion:

sound plausible?

If yes, do not give users access to your disk device.
