TLUG,
I've written a thing on my blog that might be kind of controversial,
that anti-virus software is simply not needed.
If anyone is interested in taking a look, I was hoping to get some
feedback on the technical points I make.
For instance, I say that you can never get a computer virus from certain
file times, and I explain why Linux is more secure than Windows.
Hopefully, I haven't said anything factually wrong in those regards.
Here is the link:

Please take a look and if you have any comments, either send them to me
privately or even here on list. The comments on the page won't work yet
because the page isn't "public" yet (meaning only that it isn't linked
from the top page in any way yet).
