Hi,
Mcaffee has had un*x based anti-virus out for years.  It's a command-line
based scanner.  It also has some enterprise deployment options in the more
recent versions.  I've not looked for an un*x version of norton (I
personally don't like norton).  As long as you don't stay logged on as root
it's hard for a virus to actually infect a un*x/linux system.  XP is
supposed to be more like that, but I ain't seen it yet.
Regards,
Cecil
