That's why I provided a link to detailed instructions on managing software.some of your instructions are beyond my current Linux capabilities

That is factually not correct, please don't put up such blanket statements.
@emlou: You probably got the error message, because you ran the command to install as normal user.
Please try again as root, and please post the whole output here, including the command you used.

I read recently that linux was becoming more of a target for malware etc because of its increase in popularity.
Does dual booting with windows make it any more vunerable?
tarakbumba wrote:BTW, emlou, why do you want to use Bitdefender? You can always install and use ClamAV from RpmDrake for this antivirus purpose. I don't and didn't use an antivirus software in my 10 years of Linux experience but i' ve heard that it is very good.
Notice that, there is no guarantee that Bitdefender will be correctly insalled and ran on Mageia. You do not have a proper RPM package which is created for Mageia 4. There may be (and i think will likely) dependency problems.

There were only one mlicious programm for typical GNU/Linux-Desktops in the wild with more then 10 known Infected Desktops in the last years. Donwloadable on a website ( gnome-look.org ) as an Application wich wanted to be runed as root. So if you don't install anything form forighn websites you are on the secure site.emlou wrote:I read recently that linux was becoming more of a target for malware etc because of its increase in popularity.
