Well, I think that personally, AV is what you make of it.  I've never
run a Linux box with AV on it... however, I do run Windows boxes with it
on, because my users browse places they're not supposed to and they use
IE, which installs whatever software from whatever spots, and can
install viruses in %SystemRoot%, %SystemRoot%\SYSTEM,
%SystemRoot%\System32, and so forth.

I *personally* have never had this problem, however nearly everyone I
know does.  And I have never had anything infect a Linux or UNIX box
that I have ever run or managed.  Period.  And that's not 100% due to
the way I manage, that I will admit.  It's also because the system, when
configured, stands stronger to attack then it's counterparts, and it's
less of a target, as well.
