Anti-Virus Software Reccommendation Needed
 

1. I'm sure it doesn't, but does norton work on linux?

2. If not, I have firewall set to medium so I can run a server, should I get some kind of anti-virus, and if so, what?

There are viruses on Linux? :p

is virus software even needed?

If there are no viruses, then you don't need an anti-virus. I suppose chkrootkit is a good idea though.

PLEASE search the forum, there are hundreds of threads on this topic, where you can get the full story.
