Dear friends, Our friend, Mr. Shuvam Misra's suggestion reg. FAQ may be seriously looked into. Linux is such an ocean that most of us are not very familiar with so many packages and utilities, except the ones that are most common. We somehow manage to install new things after quite a bit of struggle. More over in our filed yesterdays things are obsolete today and tomorrow they are history. So concentrating on so many things is not possible for anybody. This happens in every field because of focus areas always take much of our time. Hence it is better to have some FAQ's on difft. categories of packages or utilities, so that one need not reinvent the wheel. ( for ex. Mr. Shuvam says that they have done some changes to C code to implement the package). kindly give some serious thought. -- seshagiri --- Shuvam Misra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Please let me know about a good anti virus for > linux that is freely > > available for download.
