Yes it is. Since it operates by collecting Outlook express email addys, then it will have trouble on a Linux platform. Personally I have recently installed ClamAV because 1/ It is free (in both senses of the word) 2/ It is easy to integrate in with my Postfix mail server. (using clamdmail ) Naturally I am not running Anti Virus software to protect my Linux users. Linux is all but immune to viruses. It is there to protect my Windows clients.
