Question #78218 on Ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/78218

Rob proposed the following answer:
You can install a Anti Virus program. I did this too. I did this for
scanning my incomming mail. Not for my system, but if I forward my mail
to non Linux users. So they won´t get a virus from me. All virus code is
written in Windows. So it won´t work in Linux. So no worries there.

Like Frogging said. A Firewall is build in in your Ubuntu. If you need
to change something or what ever, you can install Firestarter. That´s a
nice program where you can control your firewall.

Have fun with it.
