Where do I download a good free antivirus?

Q. I am looking for a good free antivirus on the internet to download for my pc. Any help?

A. www.linux.com

Has a longer track record than any anti-virus of not getting infected.

What is the best free antivirus program for linux ubuntu?
Q. I know some of u are thinking,why do u want a antivirus for linux, well i read that i can still get a virus so i just want to make sure i don't even get one! so give me the best of the best !! free antivirus please!!!

A. Avast and AVG are both great, both free and both should have linux versions. As the other poster said, you probably won't need one, but having one won't hurt at all (besides, they're free).

what is the best thing about having a Linux based OS?
Q. I was wondering what would be the best thing(s) about an OS like fedora core, Ubuntu, Linux Mint, etc, that would set them apart from the others.

A. No antivirus, malware, defrag, firewall, and security programs running in the background and taking up system resources.
There are so many distributions to chose from that there is something for everyone. http://distrowatch.com/
Much better performance, less crashes, no need to reboot to regain system resources.
Software that will run on any distro, no need to find another program because you upgraded.
Much easier to network.
Open source so you know the program does what it says it will do, no tricks, malicious code, backdoors, or security risks (people do review source code).
