So, it is like it used to be, Carlos? Really no need for antivirus software? Interesting that the windows machines are being protected from themselve. I assume some distros must be weaker than others? Or why would clamav or antivir (Avira GmbH) been created. I'm probably sticking my foot in my mouth or worse my head where the sun doesn't bother shining, but I'm really curious as to clamav and antivir. You don't have to answer this if you don't want, Carlos. I can check it out! Thanks! John
These antivirus programs are made mainly for scanning attached files in e-mails sent by windows computers. Although some virus eventually included in those e-mails are not able to infect your Linux operating system, whenever you send them to someone else they might infect others computers that receive them. Eventually, you may use these programs to scan windows computers in your local network. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
