FWIW, AntiVir, Bitdefender, and F-Prot run quite well on Linux, and each |
| 11 |
has BOTH Linux and Windows Trojan and virus signatures. So you can |
| 12 |
install these and scan your windows box, and then scan your Linux |
| 13 |
box/downloads for malware (e.g. openoffice files, media files, etc.). |

Add Dazuko, and you can get real-time scanning of your Linux box while |
| 16 |
downloading/compiling software. |

(AntiVir and Bitdefender each usually score high on the |
| 19 |
antivirus/antiTrojan tests run for Windows bugs. |

Bitdefender and F-Prot are ebuilds; AntiVir is available as a Linux source |
