Let's not forget the 0.5+% that comes from free music downloads and file sharing stuff. So he can only use less than 0.5% of it the internet and its almighty power. Poor guy.

No one cares enough about you to Big Brother you Yoga. In reality you not having Anti virus doesn't just affect you, it ends up affecting others too. You might have trojans and keyloggers on your PC that can't steal any of your info because you don't use it, but from your computer they can spread out possibly passing other peoples protection because they trust that you are protected and so on and so on. So as Lulu said I will never accept any files from you, they could be infected with anything and you wouldn't know. Safe internet practice involves using firewalls and antivirus programs to protect yourself from things that slip past your good internet browsing.

Edit: Not to mention the only reason you don't pop up on Google search is because the user name Yoga is exactly the same as the workout method of yoga. Simply adding Abandonia to the search I found you straight away.

However I do use it because it does no harm either.

I completely disagree. Not only AV are very resource hungry, some of them are actually harmful for your system. Norton is a prime example!

What about other operating systems as Windows?

I also don't have any antivirus software on my Linux PCs...
Did anyone get some experience with malware on Linux?

I think that since a majority of users here are PC gamers, that they won't be willing to change their operating system to Linux.

Ehy yoga, yes you are crazy.

If you really don't feel the need of an AV you should try to use a light firewall, at least you can control in/out traffic, it's also easy to identify if your pc has been infected and if a malware is trying to access the net.

Grazie, Caro Dave,
for sincere note.

Because You are very kind person i will tell You a secret:
Yes, i use Firewall.
Moreover, i use the program System mechanic, which helps me to be safe.

Moreover, i have 2 PC. All important info is carefully recorded on both PC. So I am ready to operate from any PC if the crash occurs.

I am not careless at all. No and No.
Moreover, from the beginning of my test (February 1-st, 2012) till now there are no any complains from my correspondents. There are about 10. All is normal.
I am not member of any social net.
I am visiting about 4 sites now: AB, Inet radio, BG diary Dnevnik and one more.
If You write down the word yoga in Google, You will find 427 000 000 answers for 0.27 sec, but nothing for me.

Be fair and answer me: Do You was virused till now?

Ciao, amigo!

PS: Sorry, i have also very old PC which i use as tester machine. I tried to uninstall Avast AV. Impossible.
So, the Q is: Is the AV virus also?
ha ha ha
Our discussion is like:
-Who is the first - egg or hen?
