Ubuntu – Safety of Dual Boot

dual-bootSecurity

I have a laptop that has both windows 7 and Ubuntu with a shared drive (so I a can share files between the operating systems).

I use Windows 7 when I want to use a special program. I like to keep Ubuntu light and I only use it for surfing the internet and logging into my accounts.

If I download a shady program on Windows 7, can it infect the Ubuntu partition?
