Microsoft bought antivirus technology from GeCAD
http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=3D9944 It wouldn't have to do with Linux if only GeCAD didn't produce a very complete line of antiviruses for *nix mailservers. And they were very good too, I use RAV for postfix on my linux mail servers. Now everything related to "antivirus" in GeCAD belongs to Microsoft. Which I think means death to all the *nix antivirus product line. Even if M$ doesn't explicitly terminate it, who wants to run M$ software on their Linux machine? This is unfortunate.
