Good point. Thanks for mentioning it. Slightly off the topic, I have never ceased to be amazed at the attitude some Windows users seem to have. I think it's due to ignorance, mostly. Most don't know that Avast or AVG are good anti-virus programs and Norton and Mcafee are not. I have had countless friends call me in desperation upon having one of those programs let a virus through. Sometime it's next to impossible to fix the problem. Because AV isn't a silver bullet. It's reactive, not proactive; there's always a window of time open when a virus is created/modified/altered, released, discovered, reverse engineered, a signature is created, then released by the vendor, then your update time has to come up to get the signature, and hopefully you weren't infected by then. And since AV's don't normally get along with each other, you can't run multiple engines to overlap protection. And of course there's overhead in your AV's running, since they look at all execution of files, along with the scheduled checks. And you are at the whims of what the AV vendor defines as a threat. This was rehashed on Clam's mailing list, since ClamAV isn't really an AV anymore as much as it is a malware scanner targeted for mail servers; the team was including signatures for spoofing and phishing sites in the signatures to scan for. To be fair every AV vendor pulls this now, as all sorts of cookies and _java_script__ crap pops up as a virus or threat. This is all assuming that the AV will work properly. I've had a number of times where either the AV product implodes (Vexira liked to get stuck with some updates not working properly, or we find a system that needs to have the site license key updated and until then it annoys the user with a stuck command prompt going haywire until we reinstall) or interferes with other products (McAfee screwing up email). The only one I haven't had a headache with of some sort has been AVG. But that doesn't solve the other problems mentioned. But hey, it's status quo using a broken system model and these companies profit from it, and it's another requirement when you're dealing with the alternative of making users care enough to learn how to use a broken system properly. Otherwise you have to wait until a system comes along properly built to protect users from themselves.

There's really no need for an antivirus program. It's linux; all viruses are intended to be compatible with Windows. Linux is vulnerable to viruses, albeit less so than Windows:   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_computer_viruses A good Linux configuration will normally include anti-virus both to help protect against Linux malware and to avoid passing Windows and Mac viruses on to others. I would sooner advocate only using an AV if you're setting up a mail or file server in a cross-platform environment and saying that a good Linux configuration would have some mechanism for using MD5 hashes on your system taken and compared at regular intervals. What I'm missing is a configuration that will take MD5 hashes, find differences, and compare them to your update logs on an Ubuntu system so it doesn't give you false alarms about altered files when you already authorized them via the update manager or installed them with apt-get/Synaptic. Unlike NTFS, file alterations and additions on EXT3 shouldn't be able to hide in the alternate data streams.

You might be looking for something like AppArmor.... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor http://en.opensuse.org/AppArmor http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Apparmor_FAQ C

Would TripWire help you in this regard Bart?

Actually, one might argue that the plural of virus is Microsoft Windows , but that's another debate, not really _link_ed to grammar.

Would TripWire help you in this regard Bart? That's one of two that I think are popular with this sort of task. I don't know if it compares with logfiles so it's invisible to the user, though?
