Title:
  Wine cannot execute files due to default Ubuntu security settings

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Wine cannot execute files due to default Ubuntu security settings. It
  might not be considered a bug, but this new 'feature' might make a lot
  of new Ubuntu users doubt that it can run Windows software, or
  consider it 'buggy'.

  This is what I get when I try to execute an .exe from my internal NTFS
  hard-drive:

  "The file '/media/Storage HD/Program Kits/Digital Janitor Setup.msi'
  is not marked as executable.  If this was downloaded or copied from an
  untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run.  For more details, read
  about the executable bit."
