Do you need to use an antivirus on Linux?

No. There have been no wild Linux viruses in several years. There's no avenue for them to get onto a Linux system; most distros use secure repositories where only software compiled from source is available. No Linux email client launches attachments automatically, so you can't "accidentally" run a bad program, and programs run under a non-root account don't have the ability to modify other programs on the system.Antiviruses are useful on Linux in some situations and are available. If you regularly download files and share them with Windows users, an antivirus can help you to protect them. They do not do you any good personally, though.
