    <desc>Ci sono pochi virus per Linux quindi, probabilmente, non è neccesario installare un antivirus.</desc>

  <title>È necessario un software antivirus?</title>

  <p>Chi è abituato all'utilizzo di sistemi Windows o Mac OS, è probabilmente abituato anche ad avere continuamente in esecuzione un software antivirus. Gli antivirus vengono eseguiti in background, cercando continuamente virus che potrebbero essere presenti nel computer e causare problemi.</p>

  <p>Anti-virus software does exist for Linux, but you probably don't need to
  use it. Viruses that affect Linux are still very rare. Some argue that this
  is because Linux is not as widely used as other operating systems, so no one
  writes viruses for it. Others argue that Linux is intrinsically more secure,
  and security problems that viruses could make use of are fixed very
  quickly.</p>

  <p>Qualunque sia il motivo, i virus per Linux sono talmente rari che non ci si deve davvero preoccupare di loro al momento.</p>

  <p>If you want to be extra-safe, or if you want to check for viruses in files
  that you are passing between yourself and people using Windows and Mac OS,
  you can still install anti-virus software. Check in the software installer or
  search online; a number of applications are available.</p>
