This is my first time going all out with any Linux distro. I ran what was Mandrake about a year ago and never used it much, but I like SUSE much better. Do I need to run an AV program and spyware protection? These may sound like dumb questions, but I have no idea how well protected SUSE is on the Net. Thanks
You'll need AV if you are running a mail server that forwards mail from Windows systems. You won't need spy-ware, or ad-ware software for Linux, and if IIRC there isn't any.
