Re: [Trisquel-users] Is ClamTk a good package? Should I even bother with anti-viruses?

[555]

At the last school where I worked, I was permitted to use my own Trisquel  
computer in my classroom as long as I could show that it had anti-virus  
software. Clam TK came in very handy for that (for demonstration purposes  
only) and I didn't need to bother with the 'we really don't worry about  
viruses in the GNU/Linux world' discussion. Funny in that I also had to  
promise that my GNU/Linux system and use would be transparent to other  
computer users in the school. Of course it was and the IT director mentioned  
it when I said farewell. She also tried to get me to use iPads, SmartBoards  
(truly dreadful devices) and other non-free technology in the classroom. I  
politely refused, stating that it violated my code of ethics and she was cool  
about it.
