Just for the fun of it, I decided to install clamav to see if I was mailing any viruses to my "Windows" friends. This is the first scan I've done in a long time. After the scan - no viruses!! Thank you Linux!!

But what if you have got a virus that causes your virus scanner to report that there is no viruses

I let my email server do all the scanning

Highly unlikely. Unless Kieth was running as root and at the same time executing a 'free pr0n' script he found somewhere/or got e-mailed, but he had to make executabel first.

I wasn't running clamav as root, and I wasn't executing any script, either. I still think it is interesting that there wasn't any viruses. On WindowsXP, the scanner "snips" viruses now and again, and it isn't hook up to the internet very much.
