Thanks to everyone that's replied here, some really useful information.
There's another thread going on about Linux/Ubuntu, might make more sense if we all go into one...
It's here:

Mods, can you close this thread please?
Edit to add:
Does anyone know how to flag this to the mods without using the "Serious Complaint Form"?

I like Avira on Windows, I suppose it's also good on Linux.
I don't believe there's a linux Avira. In truth, linux antiviruses do not guard against linux viruses: they make sure there are no Windows viruses
in the files. Same for MACs, although they are getting sufficiently popular to spawn a few viruses. As OSes get more popular, they are bigger
targets.
Avira is great on Windows. If you're concerned about linux, you can get Clam antivirus in the repositories, along with an updater.
