I would go along with what trinidad says, word for word. It is a good time getting rid of the usual Windows hangups. Linux is a different game.

I've read mixed opinions on AV use with Linux distros.

I'm sure Trinidad's information is credible with him knowing much more than I about Linux, and Windows for that matter and I have no worries. I just wanted something extra, and figured I'd ask here about it.
[member=2]Jerry[/member]  It does look cool Jerry, and I suppose it could have a comforting familiarity for ex-Windowers. In the end though, technically speaking, any tk is an exploit point, and given that server downloads of definitions are headless, even in the process of monitoring mail (which is essentially all it is designed for) the vulnerability of script and/or code injection and introduction is real through several avenues including simple spoofing. I don't like Windows patches on top of Linux OSs. Just opens new doors.
