I was shocked to know that virus infected the Linux opterating system. As all of us know that exe file doesnot get executed in Linux opterating system but How my linux os is infected.
Symptoms:
1)Compter open and close files automatically.
2)Dont allow to copy a file form One drive to another.

So my question is how it is POSSIABLE some on explain Technically

    The fact is a virus can be written for any OS, it's just less likely for 'nix systems cause less people use them. Here's a list of viruses for linux from wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_computer_viruses

    and also a link to Mcafee who do a Linux antivirus

    FB
    Next time google it.
