If you're still looking for antivirus to scan files for windows machines, I think clamAV is pretty good. It should be in the repositories too.<br><br>For a firewall I've user Firestarter in the past. I only tend to use it to allow some network share ports that were blocked on my network for some reason. However, most of the time, I never user it and it doesn't get loaded up. It can be userful though for watching what connections are going in and out if like me, your linNeighbourhood stops connecting to shared folders...<br>
<br>Anyway, just my thoughts,<br> Chris<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 08/03/2008, <b class="gmail_sendername">Adrian Jones</b> <<a href="mailto:kemah153@yahoo.co.uk">kemah153@yahoo.co.uk</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

Let us all know how you're getting along with Linux (Ubuntu)<br>I run LinuxMint the new 044 version on 1 box and 011v on the other.<br>The 044 is much faster than 011 and the new polished software is very good.<br><br>
