I am confused about installing some virus scanning software on my Linux system. Thought of installing clamav, so will that be good or if anyone is using any better one, please do suggest. Thanks in advance.

    Yeah you are right I suppose, I looked up a bit, idk if root privileges can be compromised by some means, but I got to know that there aren’t many viruses made for linux based systems. So getting a virus in a file is rare case maybe, hence using an antivirus may be of no use. Thanks anyways :)
