yup true, i agree with "Linux systems are very secure and not affected by the huge amount of Windows viruses, trojans, worms or malware out there." of course win progs are not binary compatible with linux, but i dont agree with "Anti-virus software is not required." perhaps i was not clear in my initial post but a blanket statement like "Anti-virus software is not required." is what i find misleading. Especially on arch based systems like manjaro which make heavy use of aur repos which are essentially user created packages.
i also don't use anti-virus as a deamon but on an on demand basis. but i make it a point to religiously scan all archive or binary files downloaded online. better be safe than sorry
