What anti virus software should I get for Linux?
 
What anti virus software should I get for Linux. I am not worried about viruses I teach data security and I have never had a virus on my PC, the last viris I had was on the Amiga about 15 years ago.

for example i have ClamAv ,chkrootkit and rkhunter
the only thing they have found in the last 4 years were some things on my Windows XP drive that Norton missed. and a few windows.exe's in archives ( something.jpg.exe - with a thumbnail image- )
