Dude, are you the same guy who started the whole "Is my linux being hacked thread" followed by the "Is my linux being hacked, Part 2" thread? Maybe the problems are related?mdquince wrote:2nd time the virus scanner froze, anyone know why?? the first time I had 2 virus and this time I have 4. the program is just sitting there at 55% scanned and virus: 4. when i switched to linux everyone has talked about no viruses so not only do i have 4 but the virus scanner will not delete them. any suggestions?

Nautilus virus scanner? There isn't such a program - Nautilus is the file browser not an anti-virus program. Perhaps you've got some virus scanner with a Nautilus extension. Where did you get this virus scanner from (please provide a link) and what exactly were you scanning? The entire system? A single folder? A windows partition?
Also Linux doesn't really have any viruses to be worried about. Pretty much all Linux AV products check for dormant Windows viruses on your system.

People have tried to help him, he goes quiet when he doesn't get the answer he wants. Pretty close to being a troll, as far as I'm concerned.
