Which is sad....becasue if there's one thing I've noticed reading and
being a part of this forum is: a lot of people here have some SERIOUS
skills when it comes to using Linux, and the Terminal, I'd be willing to
wager that most of the "a$$e$" that would attempt to hack some of these
people's machines would be HIGHLY disappointed because of the security
measures they probably have in place. I myself and feeling "proud" of
myself because I JUST figured out how to get my ClamAV to get
"freshclam" updates!...(LOVING this "Beesu" thing!) I commented out what
needed to be commented out and now not only is my GUI up-to-date...but
so are my virus definition files! Gottal love Google!
