You don't need an anti-virus with Ubuntu, but if you're going to install an anti-virus you don't need, avast! is good.

Mainly exploits, backdoors, trojans, rootkits. Yes, "classic" viruses and worms are minority, good user-separation on Unixes blocks their effectivity and spreading. But, the peril exists anyway. regards,pc
