I have received a message from my hosting service informing me that they have found that my FTP password has been compromised by an intruder or a trojan, and that they have cleaned it of malicious software and given it a temporary password. They urge me to perform a "full anti-viral scan on your local PC (using an in-depth scanner)".
Through YaST I have searched the usual repos plus Packman to find software to make such a scan, but there is little there, and all of it seems to be for mail gateways or proxies, which I think are not relative. I've also searched the Web. especially openSuSE pages, for helpful information, but so far have not recognized any.
I would appreciate advice on how to proceed and what tool(s) to use for this.
clamav. It's in the repos.
I did install clamav and also the GUI for it, and tried to load it (Alt- F2), but have not seen anything appear. I would like to see at least acknowledgment that it is present, and maybe some remarks on how to use it. But anyway, according to the brief paragraph from YaST, it is for email viruses, which I do not think is pertinent in this case.
But it seems you have more serious problems too.
Many, some of them even unconnected with openSuSE.
the command to use is
clamscan
