    Your total lack of knowledge on how Linux works is showing. Trying to infect any 'nix OS is far more difficult than Windows.

    Many infections on Windows come from downloaded images and scripts at the user is not even aware of it. Running Windows without antivirus is foolish.

    Yeah, if you say so. I never said Linux was insecure, nor secure. I am saying hackers don't pay too much attention to something that is not as widely used as Windows. Why would they want to attack an Operating System that would have minimal damage? The point of most viruses is to create as much havoc as possible, and I don't think 2% of the internet world is enough...

    Thinking you thought you fooled me is foolish.

    I'd have to pick antivir as my choice of AV, then i just use windows defender and windows firewall to complete the solution (running windows server 2008 here).

    Norton Antivirus is better of all , because it protects our PC automatically & also removes viruses itself , no need to scan .

    I think Bit Defender is also a good choice. It gives a good protection to your computer and it's quite easy to use but it requires a lot of Ram.

    Bitdefender will be my best choice, which is not available for me to vote, secondly, trying out the new norton antivirus 2009 which claim will be the fastest and lowest resources using on this new version.
