You're retarded

Are you using an Antivirus on GNU/Linux?

>you said Linux could not get viruses
any os can get malware, but on linux you usually have to deliberately run something as root (i.e. put in your password manually or be a total retard and run everything with admin rights) to do any damage, unless it's a sophisticated attack (it isn't).
are you sure you're not detecting windows malware stored on your linux partition or did you actually and unironically run untrusted, unaudited scripts as root without checking what they do

what did it found?

systemd

the linux kernel's CoC

Radical open source evangelism

I tried to run a cracked video game installer using WINE awhile ago and I think that may be the issue. I did not run it as root though...

hurd-0.5.tar.gz

Imagine making an OS this fucking overly-complicated then expecting it to gain popularity.

>anything systemd in the home directory

maybe its complaining about infected exes? post the results

Finding windows viruses isn't noteworthy.

You can do all sorts of damage as a normal user, especially if you're running Linux as a desktop os like OP. It's not like you have to type in sudo to buy stuff with a credit card or file your taxes.

>cracked video game
that is most likely it and it's probably a false positive anyway. i'm not sure if wine applications have access to the entire linux partition or just the 'virtual' wine c: drive (i think it's the latter). probably nothing to worry about, but if you want to make sure uninstall all cracked windows software.

I'm pretty sure most are false positives

wow it's nothing

> you usually have to deliberately run something as root to do any damage
lol nope. Programs running with your normal user privileges can, depending on your system configuration, potentially capture all of your keypresses, take screenshots, access all of your personal files, access the Internet, put files on your computer, make files executable, add SSH keys for your user, and generally do everything that you can do without typing in your root password, which includes a fair amount of damage.

The key differences are that you have better control over what runs and what doesn't run on your machine and you can be more confident that the things you run do what you expect them to do because most things are open source. That's it.

i didn't know that, my bad. thanks

Like most people. Gee, I wonder how that happened. Meanwhile, google, apple and microsfoft are taking over everything and turning it to shit while computer "geniuses" fap to child porn on the darkweb while using linux. If you morons were actually so fucking brilliant, you'd be doing fucking something about this cancerous mess, which only proves how useless you are.
