We
all know that Linux doesn't need an antivirus software(in the Windows
sense), one of the many reason why we just love Linux :-), but for
people who do have an interaction with M$ Operating Systems, or if you
have to make sure that a particular data is virus free, ClamTk works
extremely well.
It is a lightweight software, simple to use, and fast.
First install the software: https://apps.ubuntu.com/cat/applicati... , then check for updates, you can also use the command "sudo freshclam" to update, then download the latest ClamTk from here http://clamtk.sourceforge.net/index.html , and install it.
Note that ClamTk is available for other distributions also, I even installed it on my Knoppix persistent live USB(the process remains the same as Knoppix is Debian based, the only thing different was that I had to install the GDebi Package Installer to install the latest deb file).
The ClamTk website: http://clamtk.sourceforge.net/index.html

My recent encounter with the viruses: https://plus.google.com/1127599409313...
