You probably knew already, but you really don't need anti-virus for
Linux - The developers acctually closes the holes the viruses are
crawling throug, instead of creating a market by letting 3. parties
create programs which serach and destroy them AFTER they got into the
system...

So if you are planning to install anti-virus on Linux, you are setting
up a server for windows boxes to put their files on, and want to clean
them for viruses from an unaffected location.

Then there is the new market-destroyer from MS - the MS antivirus! It is
designed to work without updation. Yeah right. I've tried THAT before.
The virus gets in, makes som noise, and the antivirus program
understands it an zapps it. Thats how it supposed to be. In reality they
get in, sneak around, shoot the anti-virus before it understands whats
going on (with ONE package on the market that just got 10x easyer...),
and then f**** you entire box.

Something they got to do to sell Longhorn, which is (as far as i've
heard) just a sloooooooow and heavily overated new word for "bug".
