Hmmm, Seems to me that Alexander did both. That is, he pointed out a 
number of virus scanners that run on Linux and indicated that more 
information could be obtained by searching the archives. AV scanners for 
Linux have been discussed through several threads and Chris could obtain 
more information from them than a long regurgitation from Alexander (or 
others).
