Anti Virus/ Anti Spam for Linux?
 

Hi,

This is a newb question, I have recently installed Suse 9.2 on my desktop, I use it as a work station for mail etc....

What Anti Virus/ Anti Spam software do I need if any, I mean I came from a Windows world where AV and Anti Spam is a must have? Do I even need it?

Don't take this the wrong way, but there a number of threads detailing all the ins + outs and arguments for + against virus + spyware scanning. Use the search function, or for a quick overview, a quite exhaustive thread can be found here - http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...=virus+spyware

Antispam: Spamassasin; if you dont´t want to read tons of spam, you likely want to install it. Included in Suse Linux.
Antivirus program: Antivir, included in Suse Linux.

ok thanks will investigate further!
