Isn't Linux virus-free?
For the most part, Linux is engineered in a fashion that makes it hard
for viruses to run (click here for more info). However, there are many
reasons you might want a virus scanner on your Linux PC:
[1] to scan a Windows drive in your PC
[2] to scan a Windows-based network attached server or hard drive
[3] to scan Windows machines over a network
[4] to scan files you are going to send to other people
[5] to scan e-mail you are going to forward to other people
[6] some Windows viruses can run with Wine.
[7] Linux virus infections are theoretically possible.
WHY? WE DO?
ITS JUST THAT WE DON'T WANNA FIX POOR GUY'S COMPUTER (mswin users) EVEN
IF HE REFUSED TO USE LINUX.
