jquery has been known to give you some PUA false positives w/ clamav .. looks like you'll find some things if you google for your string..

Hi forum

As linux users we are told many times that we do not need virus protection

I use clam for virus detection and I have currently 4 threats in Quarantine

They are PUA.JS.Xored (3of) PUA.Script.packed.1 (1of)

Can anyone tell me what they are and if they are dangerous

Thankyou Sellyoak

Rob I am fairly new ,,What is my string !!

Cheers Sellyoak

I just mean if you search in google for:

PUA.JS.Xored (3of) PUA.Script.packed.1

You'll probably find some supporting posts explaining that they may be false positives caused by jquery.

Infecting the Linux is little bit hard to do.but as it is also one of the operating system it may also be infected by some viruses or some malicious code that accidently run in your Linux machine.

As I know. There was like 4 or 5 viruses knowing for linux a few years ago. I believe in a idea a good linux user teach me once. Each single kernel turns very special and unique due to the different mods we do. This is.... The more you personalize your distro , more harder it is to develop a viruses. So , that way decrease the intention of viruses creator. In mac the problem is that the os isn t dynamic, is always th same thing. Hope helps

The most use for this goes on web servers and mail servers in order to catch knowing viruses and treats because as server master you don t know what os runs on each client an must offer a good service. Hope helps
