Create a new wineprefix and sandbox it (meaning remove all references to / and /home/username), then run anything you don't trust in only that wineprefix... If it's a virus, you'll know quickly enough and you can clean up that wineprefix. Generally, though, risk for getting a virus is VERY low. Especially since apps can't be launched right from your browser, it'll need your permission to download and run files.
