I have a question. Does anyone use F-Prot for Linux? And if so, do you
happen to know if it protects from all viruses, or just the linux viruses?

Hi,

happen to know if it protects from all viruses, or just the linux viruses?

The main purpose of F-Prot/Lin, as far as I know, is usage on a server
for windoze files to check _those_ for viri - also, as it uses exactly
the same .def-files as the windoze version, I'd be very surprised if it
found only the perhaps 50 linux viri. ;)

Detects the same as the windoze version.

Been running the FreeBSD version since it was available and the Linux
version before that (after being "ELF'd" to run).. never had a problem
at all.. it scans my collection and reports the exact same as it did on
my windoze box =)



Regards,

Ian
