Panda Antivirus Software Co. released a new public beta Tuesday for DesktopSecure (Antivirus for Linux), their antivirus and firewall program for Linux. It’s available as a free download from their Web site, and should run on major distributions including Redhat, SUSE and Debian. I’ve got it running right now under Ubuntu (Breezy Badger).

Panda Antivirus for Linux is an antivirus for Linux servers and desktops. It is an antivirus designed to be managed from the command line or console. To do this, an executable called PAVCL will be used.

The aim of Panda Antivirus for Linux is to scan and disinfect Windows and DOS workstations connected to a Linux server, as well as the Linux server itself.

Panda Antivirus for Linux scans files using both string searches and heuristic methods. The target files of the antivirus are Word documents, Java Applets, ActiveX controls and compressed files (ZIP, RAR, etc.). At the moment, it does not scan the boot sector or the partitions table.

Panda Antivirus for Linux is a freeware version: Panda Software does not offer technical support for this software.
