219924 2004-03-03 06:01:00 Rather substantial AVG update available today, 2059kb's.

It may pay to get this seeing as there is another worm about, Netsky-D

219926 2004-03-03 08:06:00 Dolby, I dunno if AVG works under Linux, so many things don't ..... maybe some of the Linux fans here can suggest protection for you! ;)

As for the worms and viruses, the latest Bagle ones are in zip files, and I don't know if you can execute a zip file in Linux, if you can, then I guess Linux is at risk too. If the virus isn't written to exploit Linux O/S then you'll be ok of course, until they develop ones that do affect Linux.
