Installing AV once you have been notified about a real, working linux virus is not an effective countermeasure. The problem could have been in the wild for hours/days/weeks by that point and you could already be compromised. AV vendors, including the free ones are generally ahead of you in the game, even if they are still behind the attackers. If that's a risk you personally want to take, fine. It's not a risk I can defend to an external audit, nor do I think anyone serious about Security should follow your lead. -- Sam -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
