Here are three roughly equivilent Linux terms for "Macafee AV" and
"Symantec/Norton AV"..
"F-Prot"
"RAV (Reliable Anti Virus)"
"Clam AV."
First it was the border wars between the Canada and the US and now we are
having religious debates!
Wayne...you better start shipping those KPA-800's soon! We're running out
of Elecraft talk! 8-)
