Please help.

PS: I don't care how safe Linux is I don't want viruses on my machine It like going out in the winter without a coat or proper dressing also it's like (HEY I'm going to download Everything Because there are barely any viruses on Linux) to be honest its like a nail getting pounded and that nail is getting taller by the day

Anyways I just need help with this and Please help It will be Thanked

And the instructions that came with it say.......? Unlike Windows, as a Linux user you most likely are not running with privileges that would allow you to install malicious code so I would not worry about it. I am running Firestarter which is available from the repositories. But as long as you are paranoid don't forget to install some kind of root kit preventer too.

I just discovered if I open it with the admisitorator it opens how do I set it to do that all the time?

Opps, I don't mean Firestarter, I meant to say ClamAV. It's been a long week.

Oh I also have firestarter to on my system

High temperature cast steel valves are designed and manufactured to provide reliable shutoff and smooth operation under a high temperature environment. The specified bolt torque is maintained during valve assembly, using specialized torque limiting equipment, to prevent valves from leaking between the valve body and bonnet and providing reliable long term operation once the cast steel valve is put into service.

Didn't know Avast had a x64 deb there. I thought it was only for x32 Ubuntu.

Hyper Tails _ if you're still around, how did you manage to install avast on a +64. I'm running heron and couldn't. Love to know how you did it. PLEASE.

Thats what I thought, in this case, I would prefer that it install a x64 version, Avast makes a full x64 AV for Windows so I am sure Linux users would be getting one soon as well.
