<title>メールのウイルススキャンをする必要がありますか?</title>
<p>ウイルスとは、コンピューターに侵入して問題を引き起こすプログラムです。コンピューターへの感染経路として多く見られるものは、メールを経由するものです。</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>
