I download f-prot (tar.gz) and unpacked it in /usr/local/f-prot (all according to the manual). Now i should be able to run f-prot (f-prot.sh) but it won't work. There's NO antivirus.DSL in MYDSL or in the Repository) Can anyone help? (not that i am ill but i need to have a virus-checker online, safety first you know)

I know that puppy linux has got an external Fprot package
but as i don't know if it's a fork of DSL, i can't be sure that it will work

Why do you need anti-virus software for linux?

First of all, linux isn't virus-proof! Secondly: I ultimately want to replace my windows xp (and ALL the applications that run in it) with linux, so i have to replace my Mcafee with something similar.) Third: Even if there are NO/hardly any virusses in Linux. Ultimately Linux will become so popular that the creeps who live in the basements of their parents homes will be interessted enough to write more virusses/shit 4 Linux OS.
