    <desc>વાયરસ તમારા કમ્પ્યૂટરને અસર કરી શકે નહિં, પરંતુ તે તમે જે લોકોને ઇમેલ કરો તેમના કમ્પ્યૂટરને અસર કરી શકે.</desc>

  <title>શું વાઇરસ માટે મારા ઇમેઇલને સ્કેન કરવાની જરૂર છે?</title>

  <p>વાઇરસ એ કાર્યક્રમો છે કે જે સમસ્યાનું કારણ છે જો તેઓ તમારાં કમ્પ્યૂટરમાં તેની રીતે શોધવા સંચાલિત હોય. તમારાં કમ્પ્યૂટરમાં તેઓને જવાનો સામાન્ય રસ્તો એ ઇમેઇલ સંદેશા મારફતે છે.</p>

  <p>Viruses that can affect computers running Linux are quite rare, so you are
  <link xref="net-antivirus">unlikely to get a virus through email or
  otherwise</link>. If you receive an email with a virus hidden in it, it will
  probably have no effect on your computer. As such, you probably don’t need to
  scan your email for viruses.</p>

  <p>You may, however, wish to scan your email for viruses in case you happen
  to forward a virus from one person to another. For example, if one of your
  friends has a Windows computer with a virus and sends you a virus-infected
  email, and you then forward that email to another friend with a Windows
  computer, then the second friend might get the virus too. You could install
  an anti-virus application to scan your emails to prevent this, but it’s
  unlikely to happen and most people using Windows and Mac OS have anti-virus
  software of their own anyway.</p>
