Thought I'd post this as a stand alone. Hope that's ok? :) Apologies if not. :)

I've been using Ubuntu for a couple years and have had no problem. It's just like anything else, if you're careful, you won't need it. But you are definitely less likely to get something while using Linux regardless. Just be careful with what you download.

Install CalmAv - it will mostly detect Windows malware, but it is always better to know. It does not need much resources or maintaining.

Nice video. Thanks for the tip.
If you really want to keep track of what's happening in your machines I'd recommend taking a look at Logwatch :)

I'm using Windows 8.1 on my Advent laptop, but will be using Linux at some point in a future PC build.
