** Description changed: The idea that linux is immune to malware is a false sense of security. - Prevention is the best solution. I know users are safe if they only - install software from the Software Center, but users could download a - malicious .deb file. Firefox could automatically download a malicious - java script file. Malware could trick a user into entering their root - password. I know AV affects performance. It could automatically only - scan files and repositories added to the system. A scheduled system scan - could be optional. + Prevention is the best solution. The Ubuntu Software Center might + contain undiscovered malware. Users could download a malicious .deb + file.
