I have dual boot for Windows XP and Ubuntu Ultimate in my computer. My

Windows and Linux. I succeeded to remove the virus in Windows with the help
of antivirus but having problem in Linux. I think the .exe viruses were
spread
Thank you Manoj,
Actually, I am using redhat for my work in the office and I don't want to
get confused with the differences present in the distribution. So, I chose
CENTOS for my laptop.
Isn't there any other solution to my problem ???

Wow! nice explanition!
I'm not sure about the virus will run on wine without execute (+x )
permission. Pls some one check it.
I don't run Windows so my my best guess is you are using Wubi or
accessing the ext2/3 through some interface in windows. so your your
ubuntu partionon has bare without
be careful with the command. Don't mount windows partition while executing
the command.
You may be doomed!

to remove the .exe stuff..
$ find / -name *.exe -exec rm {} \;

Thank you both for suggestion but I am confused how to proceed. Cant I
remove Wine in Ultimate edition? Is there any antivirus for Ubuntu?
Still interesting thing happening is that I am unable to delete the virus
from my Pen drive in this infected Ubuntu Ultimate. Earlier I used to
simply delete
Hi Gyaneshwar,
If you have a deep aspiration to use Anti Virus Software in Linux Distros,
you can use ClamAV .[1] else @Rhoit's solution should work in the most
efficient way , but use that carefully .
Thanks,

Saroj,
What are the cautions to be taken while using Rohit's appraoch?Is there is
some chances of malfunctioning if used incorrectly?

I guess there is Avast antivirus for linux. And about that command above,
you need to unmount all the partitions you share with windows. Also, I
guess wine wont work after you use it because wine has a copy of the
Windows and Program Files folders and the *.exe files in them will also be
removed.

As Saroj gave you the link for the clamav antivirus. I used it some years
back(experimenting) and wrote a blog. Hope it will help you.
one way to save your wine is
$ chmod -w $HOME/.wine
then after removing all exe stuff.
$ chmod o+w $HOME/.wine

There are many other ways to do the same thing..
you can actually pin-point the Folder Name.exe... best of luck with
bash scripting :D
