F-Prot GUI

F-Prot GUI is an easy-to-use graphical user interface that works with F-Prot, a powerful command line antivirus program that is free for individual users. It's a simple script, but don't let that fool you - it's packed with features that make it a reliable antivirus solution.

For Linux users, there's the F-Prot Antivirus for Linux Workstations. This software uses the F-Prot Antivirus scanning engine for primary scans, but it also has an internal heuristic system that can detect unknown viruses. F-Prot Antivirus for Linux is designed specifically to protect workstations running Linux from viruses, Trojans, and other malicious software.

With F-Prot GUI, you can scan for over 314,168 known viruses and their variants. It has the ability to perform scheduled scans when used with the cron utility and can scan hard drives, CD-ROMS, diskettes, network drives, directories, and specific files. F-Prot GUI even scans for images of boot sector viruses, macro viruses, and Trojan Horses.

This software requires F-prot and Perl, along with some Perl modules needed for check-updates.pl (read the manual). In summary, F-Prot GUI is a reliable antivirus solution that provides full protection against known and unknown viruses, making it an excellent choice for home users and businesses alike.
