[QUOTE="SpectacularTheDude, post: 976566, member: 58903"] I'm running Linux Mint 20.3 and looking for an AntiVirus. The reason is I trade A LOT of files between Linux and Windows, both my machines and other people. I'm trying to avoid Malware that might affect my Linux machine (although considered highly unlikely, there is Linux malware out there) and Viruses/Malware that might affect the Windows machines with whom I trade files with. What I've seen so far: [LIST] [*][B]ClamAV:[/B] I don't work well with the interface and would rather avoid it. [*][B]ESET NOD32[/B]: I was considering it but just saw on their website they are dropping Linux Desktop support this year ([URL='https://forum.eset.com/topic/29409-eset-options-for-potential-linux-home-users-single-device/']link[/URL] and another [URL='https://www.eset.com/int/home/antivirus-linux/']link[/URL]). [*][B]Sophos:[/B] As I understand already dropped support some time ago. Am I wrong? It seems I can still download it from their webpage, but thought is was about to lose support or already had lost it... [*][B]Comodo[/B]: no idea how they are or what their plans for the future are. Anyone recommends this? [*][B]Dr.Web Security Space for Linux:[/B] Apparently there's also this one which I had never head of before. Can anyone say if this is any good? [/LIST] There are probably other options out there that I'm not aware of, could you please let me know what they are and if they're any good? Thank you! [/QUOTE]
