Greetings All,
Sophos has a free anti-virus program for Linux. I believe we should all have a good virus scanner for our systems. Especially if we intend on installing applications and downloading files, documents and pictures from outside of trusted repositories and websites. This is also important if we plan on sharing those files with Microsoft Windows users. We wouldn't want to unintentionally infect these users machines. Especially if they are our family, friends, etc. Matthew Moore uploaded a YouTube video demonstrating the use of Sohpos and verified that his Arch system had been infected with viruses. I've included links to Matthew Moore's YouTube video and Sophos for Linux. I hope this information is helpful.
