[QUOTE="wat0114, post: 958940, member: 91306"] AFAIK the only free AV for linux is Clam AV as you mention. I've never used AV in Linux and never regretted it. If you install updates from the official repositories, use the built-in firewall at default-deny, and harden the browser, then you should be perfectly fine, at least in my opinion based on my experience using Linux on-and-off over the years. If you want to be a bit adventurous and really raise the security bar for your browser and what not, then firejail is a nice Linux sandboxing utility: [plain]https://firejail.wordpress.com/[/plain] I wouldn't be surprised if it's already available in one of the Zorin default repositories.
