    Hello everyone
    I am running Ubuntu 18.10 on my desktop as the default OS. But i have been trying to install a 'free' anti-virus but have failed everytime?
    Could someone tell me how and why this is happening and point me to a 'free' and easy to install anti-virus please.

    Not enough information. What antivirus? How are you trying to install it? What are the error messages?
