I always have a problem with viri. I constantly get infected but norton or anti-trojan can never seem to find the damn thing. I have the newest definitions and everything. I even tried online scans from symantec and mcafee and I still cant find didly. Anyone have an idea.
Are you running as root? You might not have appropriate permissions when your scanning. And if you are on root change your account to limited and primarily use that account, because if your on a limited account and get a virus it wont be able to deliver the destruction because the virus wont have appropriate permissions to do all the nasty things they like to do.
