Also what is the risk re virus' etc.
Pretty low.
And can be mitigated by running SELinux. But oh how that config hurts, and it will kick you in the teeth a lot before you've got it configured perfectly.
Most Linux users I know do not run AV, and do not care. Just be sensible, only install software you trust, don't run things you got from the internet, don't open attachments you didn't expect to receive, etc.

I'm running lubuntu from a usb on my old netbook to see whether it can make it usable again, so far so good.
As I am new to all this (an effort to start expanding my knowledge), can anyone point me in the direction of reliable info? Also what is the risk re virus' etc.
cheers
