    Hi,

    I have installed BitDefender on my Partner's Lap Top
    Is that laptop running Ubuntu ? What instruction you used to install it?

    It seems this BitDefender is only for Windows ?
    Why you like install it to Ubuntu ?
    Regards,
    Jari

    Linux doesn't need malware/antivirus protection, and ubuntu already has its own firewall.

    Let's see if I get this. The computer is running Jaunty and you want to run Bitdefender to sanitize window flash drives. Leoquant gave you a nice link for Bitdefender for unix. You can also install clamav and it will still work on that flash drive.

    I would't be worried about antivirus for ubuntu. There's something like less than 100 virusses out in the wild, and they'd have a really low chance of attacking your pc.
    I'm currently creating a website about ubuntu. Check it out here.
