Well, I went to the clamav website and it was as Carlos said. If it
protects email, is it used in a server that ultimately comes to my
email. And as my wife uses Windows XP and I am connected to her via
wireless, do I need to be using this antivirus program?
Have a good day!

I have been using ClamAV in my mail server system for years and am very
happy with it. I too have a couple of Windows machines inside the
firewall/mailer so it seems a good idea. I also have spamassassin and
exim to add to the mix.
For these critical packages I build from source.

If your linux machine is not acting as a server (for more than one win
machine) then install an antivirus to the windows box like NOD32 or
AVG.

I appreciate everyones' and I do mean everyones' input on the security
thing. I now definitely have a better understanding of it. Completely
different than windows as it always has been and I'm very happy to find
out it is the way it is. My wife does have AVG and some other programs
to protect her.

Requires, requires... not really. It does benefit (greatly) from it,

No, it still gets fragmented
Too bad.
I suppose FAT has outgrown its initial design usage for floppies and small
disks, and it has been a practical suces

But that is not a characteristic of the FAT format, but of how the
