You don’t need to use an anti-virus program in Linux. However, here are a few:

Why would you need an A/V for Linux in the first place? Theres very few worms, and most likely if you did get one, it would be from a program and that would most likely need root privileges. If you stick to your distros package manager (E.g. Synaptic Pack Manager) you would probably not get a virus/worm.

ClamAV (as are all add-on Linux Malware Tools) was written as a joke on Windows Users who just “don’t get it”.
LINUX is an Anti-Virus.
TIP: Just don’t run Linux as an Administrator all the time, set up a Standard User account for day to day use.

Earth to Casey – please read up on Linux, so you will know in the future a bit more, and not ask clueless questions? As others have posted, Linux does not need anti-virus – unless you have special needs, which you do not, or you wouldn’t have asked the question in the first place!

Unless you want to protect a mail server from distributing viruses with clamAV you shouldn’t need anti virus software under linux.
However, if running online services like content management systems, blogs, forums, etc. from a root server (regardless if it’s located at your ISP or under your desk) you might want to get a well configured FIREWALL. Even linux can get hacked and it can get you lots of trouble if somebody uses your system against you…..or for himself….
