How often do you update your virus scanner and OS?

thanks bro, I've been having some strange problems lately.... maybe this is why.

virus scanner every day. OS I check regularly.

I run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade every few days.

no need for a virus scanner :glugglug

No problem :thumbsup

update it at least once a day... takes only 30 secs or so...

A Russian website is spreading the malicious code :ak47:

which flavor of debian are you using?


I love apt-get

Never.

soon no computers in the world will work. so the Russians lose out no matter what

They spend so much time on fraud and malicious code and screwing everybody else in the process. All that effort to screw people :feels-hot
