George, well I'm not very sure about the 'carefree attitude'... I've also not installed anything in the last several weeks; I'm sure of that; except the usual updates (I know not all are from verified sources, but again it's hard for any Linux user to be immune from that). Peter, recommendation of a particular one would really help. I get several from Google and a list from Synaptic but not sure which is the best.

Hey note that virus free is used symbolically and should not be taken to mean Unbreakable or unattackable. This further should not give you the carefree attitude to click or install any application out there.
I cant point to what happened unless under an audit of the machine, just to advice you to apply the same restrictions as on windows i.e. popups, and any random software out there etc etc etc.
Cheers ./TheMburu
