Curious… have you ever had it prevent infections on your machine?
I just started using it, being quite new to running a Linux desktop. With the AUR attacks recently I thought I’d intentionally download an infected archive just to see if ClamAV would detect an infected download or at least a directory scan… it did not. I waited several days, updated it and scanned again, but still no luck.
Maybe I’m being unreasonable but coming from Windows and it’s Defender utility, it seems to be updated much more frequently. I know a person running Windows a person is more likely to be a target than a Linux user, but still it seems like up-to-date AV protection is lacking on Linux and will likely be a bigger problem as Linux desktop popularity grows.





Look we don’t care what you forget because you’re not the President, and you’re not trying to be. One should expect the President to be mentally competent.
