antispyware for Linux pls

Old Man · 26 Mar 2012 at 06:14

My hd died with my XP Op, so using Linux Mint until I can afford buying another 500gig hd to install XP or win7 to again (mostly to play Steam games) and work too

.

As I have never used Linux before and not being able to find any info on the net other than the stuff I used like superantispyware is not going to work with Linux, so can anybody give me links to freeware/shareware programs like Superantispyware, malwarebytes and avira?

TY

You dont need them. This isnt Windows!

rkhunter is pretty popular. http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/

Linux is just as vulnerable in certain situations, especially if you're using Flash & Java. Make sure you keep the system patched.

All you need to do is make sure you keep your system up to date.
