A recent post by Ramnarayan on Malware on Linux got me thinking about
this.
I do have a running Firewall (ufw with Gufw) but do not have an
Antivirus or Security Suite. Even the firewall has just one rule to
allow incoming torrent clients on a specific port.
Other than this there is no other security. And i frequently use a
Pendrive to copy files from and to heavily infected Win Machines. I
know they are infected because I delete a lot of exe files and auto
inf files from the pendrive when i connect it to Ubuntu. I have a
separate partition that contains my data, music, photos etc that is
NOT Auto mounted on login. I do not run any code that i am unsure of
what it does.
What about you guys. How many of you use a Comprehensive security
suite or Antivirus, antispyware or malware programs? What other
procedures do you use to keep safe?

Hi Narendra
I'm using bitdefender with GUI ( proprietory but free "Gratis") in on
my Fedora/Ubuntu x86_64bit ( to clean the pen-drive/external storage
which are often used with M$)
