Simple to use Anti Virus frontend for Linux

[newtusmaximus]

Great idea J.  However I am far from sure on how reliable/up to date clamav is.  Tried it for some time and the updates of the virus /threats library etc were far from frequent.  This is assuming of course I had it set up properly. i.e the GUI.

After a recent episode with android based malware on a family mobile ( discussed elsewhere and assistance given in this forum) I have had to leap into the dark and load/use SOPHOS ( free to home users).  This to ensure that the threats/malware library is constantly refreshed and all incoming is screened in the background.  Does tend to slow response times down but that is the price to pay.  Using it to ensure I do not inadvertently act as a conduit for threats when exchanging files with others not enlightened enough to use LL.
I did not feel, perhaps wrongly, that clamav was sufficiently current to deal with the potential threat I was trying to deal with.  i.e clamav might give a false sense of security?  Me being paranoid??


Perhaps a user friendly front end for SOPHOS?  Could be a winner as they have stopped developing their GUI
