What is AVG 7.5? Is it the windows application? If yes, why would you want to run it on debian? clamav is a free anti-virus program available in debian. HTH, Johannes NB: It is *really not a good idea* to escalate root privileges to ordinary users. I guess the negative impact on security will greatly outweigh any security benefit you might gain by using such an ill designed product. YMMV. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkk/fC0ACgkQC1NzPRl9qEWDtwCfQVe/ynqnYpXIamIWIgq5jC/0 Rc0An0druAN9OAzn5sNEjzP7gBlFzLHy =FnPS -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
