Install Antivirus in your Ubuntu Box


First, you really don't need an antivirus for Ubuntu unless you're planning on dealing with windows files and/or systems.
You can download Comodo Antivirus from their website, and choose your architecture 32bit or 64bit. Once downloaded, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, navigate to where the file was downloaded (probably the Downloads folder), and run the command(s) below:
sudo dpkg -i <file_name>.deb
I would recommend ClamAV. To install run in terminal
sudo apt-get install clamav
sudo freshclam
sudo clamscan
