On-access antivirus options

[LL-user]

Hi JonMikeIV,

For the scheduling I recommend to have a look at anacron. It's specifically made for machines not running 24/7 but need jobs run on a regular basis (daily, weekly, monthly).

Further information about anacron:

For the choice of the AV product itself you might want to have a look at these articles:
