Installation for real time protection on Acer Aspire One running Linux

Avast Business Avast Business for Linux

Hi, I am new to Linux having just received an Acer Aspire One running Linpus Linux as a gift. I used Avast before on Windows PC and now want to use it also on my new notebook. I have downloaded the Linux version of Avast and it seems to have installed correctly as I can manually run scans. However, I do not seem to have real time protection as there is no icon appearing in the system tray (i.e. where my wi-fi and volume indicators can be seen at the bottom right of the screen).

Does anyone know how to set up Avast on the Acer Aspire One so that I can get real time protection.

Thanks

for realtime protection ,

you need to purchase the commercial license of avast for linux servers.

home version only provides on-demand scanner.

I would add :

Realtime scanning is not necessary under linux.

A time-to-time full scan of your disk is highly enough :wink:

I second this :wink:
