  <title>Heb ik anti-virussoftware nodig?</title>

  <p>Als u gewend bent aan Windows of Mac OS, dan bent u waarschijnlijk ook gewend aan het continue draaien van anti-virussoftware. Anti-virussoftware draait op de achtergrond; deze zoekt voortdurend naar computervirussen die mogelijk de weg naar uw computer weten te vinden en daar problemen veroorzaken.</p>

  <p>Anti-virus software does exist for Linux, but you probably don’t need to
  use it. Viruses that affect Linux are still very rare. Some argue that this
  is because Linux is not as widely used as other operating systems, so no one
  writes viruses for it. Others argue that Linux is intrinsically more secure,
  and security problems that viruses could make use of are fixed very
  quickly.</p>

  <p>Whatever the reason, Linux viruses are so rare that you don’t really need
  to worry about them at the moment.</p>

  <p>Als u extra beveiligd wilt zijn, of als u bestanden die u doorstuurt naar andere mensen die Windows en Mac OS gebruiken op virussen wilt controleren, dan kunt u altijd nog anti-virussoftware installeren. Kijk in het software-installatieprogramma of zoek online, waar verschillende toepassingen beschikbaar zijn.</p>
