This claim is false. However, the number of viruses and their effectiveness is so low, that you probably won't need an antivirus solution. ClamAV and AVG have Linux versions. > 2) Is there a site where I can visit daily to get some basic news and > updates about linux. What do you mean by updates about 'Linux'? The linux you use is actually an aggregation of thousands of pieces of software written by different people. You will have to track news and updates of each part separately. There may be sites which aggregate news. Maybe your distribution's website has something of that sort. > 3) Kindly suggest a book which can teach me about basic as well as > advance linux shell scripting so that I can be good at this os. > > There is another thread going on on this list which is discussing this very topic. You can take a look at that. -aditya _______________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List
