Linux antivirus.

[Bozo]

Is there antivirus programs for Linux and do I need to be using it?

Thanks

You can install ClamAV, which is a free, on-demand scanner for Windows viruses. Linux doesn't have viruses as such, but it can deliver Windows viruses to Windows machines. For a home system, it's not I'd be all that concerned about.
