Thanks to all of you for your warm welcomes.
As far as using an antivirus program on Linux goes I am starting to think as others do that it is not needed.
I only have Linux Lite installed on my hard drive and do not have Wine installed as there are no Windows programs I wish to use.
I have installed ClamAv but feel there is no need for even this program inside a Linux OS.

Next job is to remove Clam and run LL as it is.

Thank you all

John

Welcome to the group.  You're in the right place.

I'm not much older at this than you are.  At the beginning, because I was coming from the world of MS Windows, I felt anti-virus was a must.  I looked into what to use.  Learned about clamav and its GUI, clamtk.  I played with them initially, but currently, I don't run them.  Going forward, if I feel I need a scan, I plan on using www.virustotal.com or maybe Comodo Antivirus for Linux, www.comodo.com.

I have been using OS now for about a week and so far I am very pleased with it.
Up to 8 months ago I was a Windows 7 user but like many I was getting tired of constantly having to check for viruses and defrag my system and the inevitable system crashes.
Since then I have tried a good number of different Linux OS including Ubuntu, Zorin 9,Mint 17.2 and others I cannot remember.
This Linux Lite must be perhaps the best one so far and similar to Zorin 9 in the way it opperates.
I really liked Linux Mint 17.2 but fancied something a bit lighter on my system.
AS I have said I have only been using it for about a week but it seems like I might keep this one for a while.

John
