I use Trend Micro's online "Housecall" service, http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ which uses Java to scan Linux as well as Windows systems. When I download Windows games for my daughter, before I copy them over to her machine, I do a scan with Housecall. I have not caught a virus in the act yet, but this way I can test it on a machine that cannot be infected by the Windows virus first. Sort of a "clean room" test. |

Interesting perspective. Thanks for that. |
