AFAIK the only use most people have for AV software on Linux is when they're running a mail server and want to filter certain kinds of spam from reaching their Windows users. I do online banking in Fedora and have never installed AV software. My bank also has a general warning about using AV (which they seem to use as a catch-all term for any kind of anti-malware). I just ignore it. [BTW, anyone else see the irony that most banking websites will not let you use a password manager?]. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
