I know that Linux is more secure than Windows and normally doesn’t need an antivirus, but know myself I’m gonna end up downloading something at some point from somewhere on the internet, and it would be good to be prepared. So, which antivirus would you recommend for Linux (Mint specifically) just to double up on security?

    l have installed ClamTK, but just because my bank has explicitly written in its terms of use that “an antivirus program has to be installed on the PC used for online banking.”
    So I installed one to comply. But that’s it…

      Just discovered that ClamTK is no longer maintained…
      So I am also interested in alternatives to still be able to appease my bank.

          Thanks! Seems that ClamTK has just been a GUI-Wrapper around ClamAV anyway…
          And as I am only interested in installing, and not actually using, CLI-only is also fine!
