alright, im getting clam just to be safe
thanks
Safe from what?
Clam cant find anything that culd do any damage to your OS. And you better hope that the windowsusers you share files with have antiviruses of ther own. Theyd be stupid otherwise.
You dont need an antivirus. As a result of this, Clam dont do on access scan. Wich means you manualy have to tell it what files to scan.
For example a mailserver: If a mail has an attachment a script detects this and tells Clam to scan it.
Its a performence issue. You dont want an AV running constantly and stealing CPU time.
So you be having a program installed and you will never use it. You have no point in using it. General space-waste.
