:wavey: I think I have it installed but its never ran before. :hsdunno: Whatevs, I'm not worried. Most virus programmers could care less about people running Linux, its easier to go after Windows.

I keep AVG free running. Gives me some peace of mind and isn't as much of a resource hog as Norton/Mcafee.

I disable it if I'm running non-online games, though.
